Samyang: Denmark recalls Korean ramen for being too spicy

Three fiery flavours of the Samyang instant ramen line are being withdrawn: Buldak 3x Spicy & Hot Chicken, 2x Spicy & Hot Chicken and Hot Chicken Stew.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

Unless it is demonstrated to be genuinely dangerous, it should be sold as normal. If no one liked them, they wouldn't sell.

Turns out they were demonstrated
Yeah, in the same sense that peanuts are dangerous to some people...
Ok, then I agree it shouldn't be sold anywhere.
Let's ban peanuts, shrimp and milk too, some people will also get poisoning symptoms from them too.
Usually children know when they are sensitive to those things and can avoid them pretty well. How should a child know they are more sensitive than others to potential negative effects of capsaicin?Also, this brand of spicy ramen will be a lot easier to get rid of than literally everyone that produces peanuts, milk, and shrimp.
Maybe we could find a way to test kids and see if they are susceptible, and then coach them to avoid this ramen at all costs, but that's a lot more work than simply recalling the product that is poisoning children.
