Gee, perhaps people enjoying spicy food tend to eat more of it?

Conclusion: Our findings suggest a positive association between chili intake frequency and BMI and obesity in United States adults, suggesting that controlling chili intake frequency could potentially contribute to improved weight management in the general population.

Correlation does not always mean causation.
