    Imagine something being so spicy your local regulators deem it unfit for consumption. Those noodles slap.

    I foresee the “ramen challenge spicy 3x” coming to your TikTok by the end of the day. (Someone will have to let me know if I’m right, i don’t have these new-fangled tikky tock things the kids are talking about.)

    The level in a single packet of the noodles was “so high that they pose a risk of the consumer developing acute poisoning”, the Danish body said.

    What should I do with my bottle of Pepper X hot sauce?

      I’ve found it on Amazon periodically, but to avoid that, they show up at a local Asian supermarket sometimes.

      They’re hot as fuck to me though (I’m kinda a spicy wuss though), like, painful to finish…but tasty. My friend can eat them and barely break a sweat or get flush. YMMV.

    Sounds like a skill issue.

    But seriously I’m guessing people in Denmark (or these regulators) don’t eat much spicy food because I’ve had the Spicy and Hot Chicken and it wasn’t spicy to me.

      I’ve given the 3x noodles a go. Although banning them seems ridiculous, in the words of Big Clive, “why do they even say chicken” https://youtu.be/FH5vp-VyZFU “So spicy they’re banned in Denmark” would look good on the packet though.

      I don’t know, I like spicy food but I had trouble eating the one in the thumbnail I bought in Thailand. It was really intense during, after and the day after on the toilet.
      Maybe you are desensitized to the spiciness, or the version you had was milder

        I honestly haven’t had the 3x spicy version so I honestly cant say anything about it. I had the Spicy and Hot Chicken which, based on the name, I’m guessing is milder. I know that spice tolerance is a huge thing and can vary wildly from person to person so I totally understand how it could be a bad experience to some. Which is why I think a recall is silly and instead they should have a warning so those who like it can continue to eat it.
