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.
They should have advertised it in norway as “so spicy, it had to be banned in denmark”
Take my money.
Notice the ban was based on the information given by the dealers themselves.
When the actual lab results came back it turned out to be not quite as strong as advertised.
So I guess it’s false advertising, but that’s probably another department.According to the report, the capsaicin levels were calculated based on the Scoville scale information disclosed on Danish retail websites selling the noodles, rather than the noodles themselves, as no specific measurements of capsaicin or total capsaicin content are provided by the manufacturer.
False advertising by the Danish themselves.
Which is why I wrote dealer, not the manufacturer.
But where is the most likely place for the dealer to get those numbers?Out of their ass
