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 “one chip challenge” did hospitalize several people and caused the death of a child with heart defect. They are potentially unsafe.

    Not wanting those kind of crap products sold in the food section and advertised towards kids isn’t nanny stating.

    There is no way a kid could make a qualified judgement themselves when it’s placed and marketed next to ordinary safe consumables.

    I don’t mind these products being sold, but I do have higher expectations for safety of products sold in a food section.
