Denmark bans ramen noodles for being too spicy
These Korean-made ramen packets are too hot to handle — literally, if you ask the Danish.
In its note about the recall, the DVFA claimed that kids were filming themselves eating super-spicy food for social media challenges.
Several children in Germany were hospitalized after attempting to eat spicy chips, it noted.
DVFA said a customer alerted them to the noodles, which it then assessed through its DTU National Food Institute to determine if they were harmful.
The DVFA said capsaicin content in the noodles could cause burning, nausea, vomiting, and high blood pressure.
The three recalls involve Korean maker Samyang.
The packets consumers should discard or return include: Samyang Buldak 3x Spicy & Hot Chicken, Samyang Buldak 2x Spicy & Hot Chicken, and Samyang Buldak Hot Chicken Stew.
Samyang did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Business Insider, but insisted in a statement to the BBC that the food quality wasn’t the issue.
“We understand that the Danish food authority recalled the products, not because of a problem in their quality but because they were too spicy,” Samyang told BBC in a statement, adding that “this is the first time they have been recalled for the above reason.”
The company added it’s looking into local regulations, the BBC reported.
