Tortilla chip brand Paqui says it is voluntarily removing its ultra-spicy “One Chip Challenge” from shelves after a Massachusetts family claims their 14-year-old son may have died from complications from the challenge.
hmmm maybe we shouldnt let companies and people sell whatever the fuck they want
I mean, Buldak noodles are supposed to be something like that, but they legitimately do taste good. They are exactly at the point where it is actually painful to eat, but not too much to enjoy it. I have heard they have variants that are 2-4x as spicy and do not intend to try them.
x4 spicy are actually milder, forget what it refers to. I keep a bunch of x2 spicy on hand though, can get them at like $1.50 each sometimes and they are great. I’ll add chicken nuggets or fried tofu and extra soy sauce to tone down the heat somewhat. 8,000 scoville or so.
x1 is really good, but the nice thing about x2 is that because it’s so strong it’ll stay reasonably spicy even as you add in meat and veggies. But x1 I can just eat straight as fast as I want, while I need milk or ice cream if I eat x2 too fast even with the extra stuff.

2x is too hot, for me the 1x is perfect
