Buldak spicy noodles are back on shelves in Denmark after the food authorities there canceled part of their recall decision concerning the famous Korean instant noodles product, originally issued due to their extreme spiciness and consequent health risks.
The Danish Veterinary and Food Administration announced, Monday (local time), that two of the three products that had been recalled were not harmful to health, based on updated risk assessments.
“Based on the new analysis results and the DTU Food Institute’s updated risk assessment, the administration concludes that two of the products, Samyang Buldak 2x Spicy Hot Chicken and Samyang Buldak Hot Chicken Stew, do not contain capsaicin levels as high as those reported by the distributors in the marketing,” the Danish administration said in a press release.
the ban sounds like great advertising material.
“so spicy that Denmark had to make it illegal”
“are you stronger than the entire country of Denmark?”
“criminally spicy”
When Monty Python’s The Life of Brian came out, Norway banned it. Sweden then advertised it as “the film so funny that it was banned in Norway.”
That’s beautiful, thank you for sharing. I’ve been a fan for ages but didn’t know that.
You’re not wrong. My interest in that brand jumped. But reviews basically said “it’s just spicy, not great flavor”
I thought it was delicious. And that’s when trying to eat the black package, which was so spicy I very nearly threw up. But it still tasted delicious.
I tried them and really enjoyed it. it was an amazing experience. wouldn’t call it delicious tho. more comparable to skydiving than a meal.
It would have been until they measured the capsaisin levels and declared it not as spicy as they were told.
