idk if it’s still legal anywhere in europe but it was in the 2010s
Nordic countries taking their crusade against flavor to the next level.
The worst thing is that plenty of Scandinavian food is fantastic. Its just been memed by nationalists to be “pork meat” (so we can exclude Muslims) and by Americans to be “fish, bread and mayo lol” because they have no understanding of culinary culture that isn’t slapping the same spice rub on every single dish and calling it a day. I made an effort post on this on an old account.
But then they do this shit and it’s just the most WASP thing you can do. Crusade against flavor + “won’t somebody please think of the children?”What little Nordic food I’ve had has been pretty good so I have a decent opinion of it. On the other hand, I see Nordic people having consistently shit takes on food like “Korean fried chicken is too spicy, schnitzel is better” and I think that there’s something deeply wrong with the people.
schnitzel
That’s not a Scandinavian invention, blame the krauts
Wait until you find out its actually an italian invention.
Which means its actually chinese
Mama mia!
That’s my secret, I always blame the Krauts
Are you thinking of that one Swedish guy picking fights with the entire world? I haven’t really seen those takes otherwise, but I’m sure they’re out there and they should be reeducated
We might be thinking of the same guy. Idk I just saw people pulling sick dunks on him for that take.
We probably are, but he doesn’t just have “one” take. He’s going thru the entire international community regional cuisine by regional cuisine. Dissing tacos, ramen, paneer and a whole bunch more. It’s honestly impressive how he manages to be so wrong about food so consistently.

WAJL (White Anglo-Jutic Lutheran) just isn’t as catchy.
They’re not even that spicy. At this point I’m starting to suspect it’s a gingers being immune to anesthetic or cilantro tasting like soap situation where we should stop making fun of them because it’s an actual medical condition.
Being Western European is a medical disorder confirmed
They’re pretty spicy?? Especially the 2x and 3x.
never had the 3x. The 2x is pretty damn spicy for a normal person, but not that crazy relative to the sorts of things spice-heads are into for sure, and definitely edible.
I’m not sure if I’ve had the 3x spicy one either.
Am white, can confirm, it’s a condition.
I remember making my first bowl of Buldak 2x at work and crying. My coworker came over to check on me and I managed to stutter out “these are tears of joy, I have found my new favorite ramen.”
I love it so much. It does not love me back. That is okay.
I like to put an egg or vegan cream substitute in the broth, helps a lot and gives a nice taste
if you’re a disgusting heathen peanut butter is also good
That’s not disgusting that sounds incredible, how did I not think of that before. Maybe one could add crushed peanuts and green onions as well.
just untraditional
It is tasty (though it’s easy to accidentally use too much and turn it from soup to one big mush)

Tbf I’ve meet an increasingly large number of non-kkkrackkker people who can’t handle spicy food. I have a First Nations friend who gets the runs from Buffalo wings. Heck my partner is half Ecuadorian and my honkey ass can handle spice better than them.
I think some people just got sensitive stomaches
Most of the Americas does not have spicy cuisine. Domestication of chilis was a Mesoamerican & Andean thing and even today they haven’t spread to all cuisines in the hemisphere.
My stomach has never been the issue with spicy food. The issue is when there’s too much capsaicin, it is just agony in my mouth. It makes me fucking hiccup. And due to the physical properties of capsaicin if the food is too spicy every bite just makes it worse and the sensation takes forever to go away even while drinking milk.
I really do not get why anybody seeks it out outside of some perverse “dudes rock” self flagellating thrill seeking. Things taste better when you use peppers that have flavor other than “ow”
Things taste better when you use peppers that have flavor other than “ow”
honestly with you on this one. But I think everyone’s perception of where to draw that line will be different. I’ve had a lot of good ghost pepper based sauces, but I think a lot of people would say that’s well into “ow” territory. Habanero is also excellent, and depending how its prepared can be quite spicy.
I think ghost pepper is fine and can add a unique flavor but it’s really quantity dependent
for me the perfect level of spicy is at the level of a hot paprika, like how I’ve been making the cajun food for work. I get that feeling of warmth, a lot of smoky pepper flavor, and I can always make it a little spicier with some cayenne. I get good enough reviews from my Turkish and Mexican coworkers and I think if I made it any spicier a majority of people would just refuse to eat it lol
not sure I’ve had a hot paprika
cooking for a group is definitely different. Better to just offer sauces on the side in that case and make it to a lower spice level
I really do not get why anybody seeks it out outside of some perverse “dudes rock” self flagellating thrill seeking.
Have you considered I like the thrill of eating the pain plant and it making my mouth go “AHHHHHHH!”
I have and it sounds like
some perverse “dudes rock” self flagellating thrill seeking
lol
Hey sometimes dudes do indeed rock!
Now let me dump a gallon of my “Asshole Prolapser Habanero Sauce” that I bought out of some guys truck at a music festival on my nachos in peace!
hey i never said you couldn’t. I’m not the Danish government
That might be COVID related if it’s recent. One of the ways flavours changed for my sister after her second bout was spiciness becoming much spicier, to the point of pain at even a very small amount.
I have done this, at which point I swallow my pride and my tears and shovel what I can in my face, ask for a to-go box, and eat it at home with plenty of fat on hand to fight the capsaicin.

That sucks. These noodles are very tasty. Also the package openly advertises how extremely spicy they are so I am not sure if a ban was necessary.
Well according to one parent “all the other spicy foods aren’t so spicy as to be dangerous, so it’s wrong actually”. Deeply embarrassing to admit that all the other spicy foods aren’t spicy (if you think the regular spice packets are abnormally spicy, then I don’t know what to say)
They literally tell you on the packet that if it is too spicy, you should use less of the spice powder. There’s solutions that don’t involve making flavour illegal.
not beating the “protestantism makes joy impossible” allegations
Death to America
It’ll be another fifty years before Northern Europe is allowed to discover spices. Sad day
For some reason this made me envision like a culinary version of a Paradox game where, for once, Europe is “technologically” backwards
Korea getting the bland food CB against Scandinavia and immediately declaring war
They conquered the world for spices and didn’t use any of them.
I remember looking it up online and I believe the actual capsaicin levels were like 8000 for the regular but that there was just some funky chemistry that made them feel more spicy. Though I do feel like I might have made them spicier by forgoing making any broth and treating them more like an instant yakisoba.
I have a few theories on that. scoville doesn’t directly measure capsaicin, it measures how many times diluted you need to make a concentrated extract of the pepper before the heat is undetectable in sugar-water. So how it applies to sauces is unclear to me. You could take the scoville rating of the underlying peppers, or you could directly dilute the sauce itself, or you could somehow make an extract of the sauce itself and test that.
So maybe that rating is misleading because of ambiguity in how its measured, or the sheer quantity of oily sauce, its not like a little dab of vinegar-based hot sauce, it sticks
How embarrassing
Very much so.
It’s because a parent complained that their child ate one “with pink packaging” WHICH ISNT EVEN ONE OF THE SPICY ONES.And now there’s scores of parents applauding the initiative. I feel like a libertarian crying about a “nanny state”.Edit: no child ate one and got sick, see further down the thread for the even dumber story
Did something happen to the kid? I don’t understand what is happening here unironically
In Germany some unspecified number of children have previously gotten food-poisoning equivalent symptoms from ingesting too spicy chiliproduct some have apparently been admitted to hospitals. In Denmark there’s apparently a tiktok-trend of challenging each other to eat Buldak spicy noodles. Some “confounded customer” decided to ask the danish FDA wether it could really be true that it was legal to sell these spicy chili ramen packets since some kids in germany at one point ate chili and got admitted to the ER. The danish FDA decided that because some children in Germany at one point got an upset tummy from eating too much spice (from ramen? who knows, they don’t say) it cannot allow the sale of “incredibly spicy instant noodles packages” like… Spicy ramen. The consumer asked about the ones in pink packaging which also aren’t spicy ramen so?
I could kind of understand the 3x one, maybe, but they’ve banned the regular one as well.🥵🌶️🌶️
Amazing
their child ate one “with pink packaging”
NOT THE CARBONARA
Buldak is so good! How could they!
It’s not vegan though, it contains eggs. The chicken flavor is vegetarian though, at least.
Wait, really? I definitely buy them sometimes (not the pictured ones, the purple one, habanero … something flavor?) and I know I checked ingredients. Did I really miss eggs? That seems unlikely, but I’ll have to check carefully next time I see them.
I believe the noodles have egg involved, but it seems to vary regionally.
Well, hopefully I live somewhere where the noodles do not have eggs! I’ll definitely read the ingredients again next time. It would be super sad if I couldn’t eat them anymore, because they are delicious, in a painful kind of way
In Amerika and Klanada at least I am pretty sure the 2x spicy one is vegan (but not the 1x spicy, they use actual animal products in the flavoring)
White Person Injured In Egg-Involved Noodle Consumption
For everyone who is vegan who sees this (all 3 or so of you), it’s fine! I have not accidentally eaten eggs, there are no eggs in the version that I can buy here, I’m attaching a photo of the ingredients for you to check for yourselves.
Editing to add: “Artificial flavor” is super sus, but I’ve long since decided not to care about that. If that makes me a bad vegan, so be it.
I went out to a few stores, and did some internet research. Found a mail conversation with samyang on a Swedish forum. According to them none of their noodles sold abroad contains meat, fish, eggs or diary production. The egg noodles are supposed to just be domestic. However, a lot of my local Asian food stores carry Samyang products with eggs, probably obtained through a Korean re-seller rather than Samyang themselves.
Here’s the ingredients of the (vegan) 2x that I just bought:
tl;dr: it’s probably vegan, but you should still check the ingredients.
Which flavour is that one?
Habanero Lime!
I was just about to call the vegan police on you
Growing up in a West Indian family that regularly used habanero peppers in the sauces and food we ate makes this the most alien thing I’ve ever read with my own two eyes.
Yeah it’s wild to see the people saying this is a good thing. “Chilis just aren’t suited for danish people!” I guess all the middle eastern people who emmigrated here can just get fucked then
