    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.
