Three fiery flavours of the Samyang instant ramen line are being withdrawn: Buldak 3x Spicy & Hot Chicken, 2x Spicy & Hot Chicken and Hot Chicken Stew.

Denmark’s food agency issued the recall and warning on Tuesday, urging consumers to abandon the product.

It’s unknown if any specific incidents have prompted the Danish authorities into taking action.

    SHU is weird anyway. I’ve tried toothpick drops of the Source (7.1m) and it wasn’t all that bad, but a good chili oil will fuck me. There are a lot of variables. How it coats your mouth and what you’re having with it matters a lot, too.

      It’s true that it’s an imperfect measurement, but it is the closest to a useful illustration that I have.

      I’m trying to avoid the whole one upping thing while just warning that if Sriracha is given an example of peak spicy, I’d caution to start slow on Korean hot foods that are labeled with extreme packaging. Not saying don’t try, but small bites to check instead of diving in.

        That’s very fair. Small bites, and don’t hesitate to dress it up to see if it can be made to suit. There are prolly thousands of videos on adding stuff to noodles, and some will lessen the heat.
