Denmark's food authorities have estimated three flavors of Samyang instant noodles too spicy and potentially harmful, especially for children. These noodles have been pulled off shelves to ensure safety. When people eat something too spicy, they might experience discomfort, headaches, and the need to drink a lot of water. The company behind these noodles claims they are sold globally and Denmark is the only country that has had such a reaction. They are currently looking into local regulations to possibly reintroduce the spicy noodles in Denmark in the future.
