What do you call it when a name/word is better known by a pejorative?
If you think that "ObamaCare" is a poor example of a perjorative, please suggest a better example and I will improve my question.

How to say that food is hot (temperature) without the listener thinking that I mean “spicy”?
With 50 votes and 2500 views and no clear answer, I'm going to accept this answer that it is "a genuine inadequacy in the English vocabulary with no simple fix."

No, "burning hot" could be idiomatically interpreted to mean "spicy" as well. As a matter of fact, I've heard people talking about spicy food "setting their mouths on fire".
