Danish authorities issued a warning about three varieties of Samyang’s ultra-spicy ramen noodles, citing risks to kids engaging in social-media challenges.
On social media, kids often challenge one another to eat super-spicy foods in feats of nose-running, eye-watering endurance.
It is unclear whether those chips are the same as the one that a Massachusetts teenager died after eating while participating in the viral” at school. An autopsy later revealed that the boy died of a heart attack “in the setting” of ingesting high levels of capsaicin, and that he had underlying heart problems. Paqui, the maker of the chip — which came packaged in a coffin-shaped box — quickly discontinued it.
The ban on the ramen noodles was prompted by a consumer who wondered why the products were legal. “The DTU Food Institute has now assessed the products, and the conclusion is that the noodle packets are harmful to health,” the statement reads. Anyone who had already eaten the product and had not suffered a bad reaction was fine, they said. But the officials urged anyone with symptoms to contact poison control.
An email to Samyang seeking comment was not immediately returned. “We understand that the Danish food authority recalled the products, not because of a problem in their quality but because they were too spicy,” the company told, their rising popularity online — and particularly among young people, who are among the most vulnerable to potential negative side effects — has worried health officials and parents.
There have been other reports of U.S. children being sickened by the Paqui chips, with complaints of vomiting, eye irritation, difficulty breathing and other symptoms. Late last year,halted the production in that country of a similar chip product that was sold with a pair of rubber gloves for handling.
