The box office performance of "Hot and Spicy" in the North American market was cold. The box office on the first day was only $315,000, and the average ticket sales per theater was $1575. Compared to the domestic box office sales of more than 100 million yuan, this figure was quite low. The foreign media did not have a high opinion of the film either. They believed that the film used vulgar humor as its selling point and had a condescending attitude towards the protagonist, causing the climax of the film to appear empty.

North American audiences might not understand the cultural background and values of Chinese movies, so it was difficult for them to resonate with them. Therefore, it could be said that the main reason why 'Hot and Spicy' was not popular in the North American box office was due to poor market acceptance and cultural differences.
