I personally don’t think Korean food is overly spicy, it’s just that I don’t like this specific kind of spicy from the chili flakes. Somehow they are in 80% of the Korean food.

    kinda funny ngl, i don’t like those overly spicy ramens but they don’t seem to be that spicy to be considered poisonous.

      I’ve eaten them before and they’re pretty spicy as far as instant noodles go but just eating a fresh habanero would be a more intense sensation.

    I’ve tried hde 2x chicken one. Absolutely lethal dose of spicy, could barely eat a third even after draining the water.

    Tastes like heaven though.

    These particular noodles aren’t just ordinary noodles but extra spicy: their spiciness transcends the category of “spicy food” and goes towards “extreme jackass stunts”, or possibly “nonlethal weapons”. You don’t eat them for the flavour, you eat them to demonstrate toughness.
