There is no such thing as fat burning foods. Spicy foods increase metabolism slightly but the best way to burn fat is good old fashioned excercise.

fat burning foods, you mean foods that have less calories then they burn, right? heres a list:Limes, Lemons, Grapefruit, Tangerines, Oranges, Kiwi, watermelon, cabbage, carrot, apple, blueberries, Non-fat milk, Low-fat yogurt, White (fresh) cheese, broccoli, lettuce, cauliflower, peppers, celery, spinach, tomato, cucumber, apricot, mandarin orange, blackberry, blackcurrant, peaches, plums, raspberry, grapefruit. rhubarb, guava, strawberry, honeydew melon, lemon.
there are a few others, but these are the ones that come to mind. 1/2 a spoon (not sure if it’s table or tea, srry) can burn around(is it 1/2 a pound a week?) something like that. but all(well, most) spicy foods will increase your metabolism. also, chewing 20+ times tricks your body so that it thinks there is more food(just a bit, but it helps) and if you don’t top moving most of the day, that helps to. just tap your foot, tighten+loosen you muscles, wiggle your fingers, stuff like that. hope this helps!!(and srry for long answer)

of the 3 macronutrient groups (protein, carbohydrates, fats) protein cause the greatest thermogenic effect. also the higher the caloric content of the meal the greater the thermogenic effect of feeding (TEF) there is. so it takes the body more energy to digest and metabolize 20 grams of proteins than it does 20 grams of carbs or 20 grams of fats. a 400 calorie meal will have a greater TEF than a 200 calorie meal. the TEF accounts for about 5-10% of the BMR of a healthy individual.
this is one of many reasons why decreasing the carb intake and increasing the protein intake has such a positive effect on fat loss. don’t waste your time with so called "negative calorie foods", noting but junk science
