The food authorities said the instant ramen contained such high capsaicin levels consumers could be poisoned.

Three fiery flavours of the Samyang instant ramen line are being withdrawn: Buldak 3x Spicy & Hot Chicken, 2x Spicy & Hot Chicken and Hot Chicken Stew.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

    My partner loves these and can’t understand how I find them painfully spicy. Like sure there’s some enjoyment to be had while slurping away, but as soon as I’m done the wheel of pain starts to turn and my body rebels against the assault with every cell seemingly screaming in unison

    I suppose it’s my own fault. I mean look at the packaging: that’s a warning

        Yup. I mentally prepare myself for the oncoming battle with death over the porcelain throne every time I decide to indulge in demon ramen. I’ve made peace with this part of my life.
