Spicy Foods

Does anybody know if eating spicy foods before you sleep affects the contents of dreams?

For example, i had eaten a spicy link then went to bed a few minuets later. That night i noticed my dreams were very strange, more strange than usual. i was wondering if it was because of what i had eaten or if possible the food acted as a placebo because i was told that spicy foods can affect you in some way.

when you eat spicy foods and sleep it results in heartburn, the pain accompanied by your body struggling to digest leads to disturbing images, especially when not lucid. would you mind explaining to me how strange the dream was? :)
