Looks like Amazon has it @ $15/10 pack. I'm tempted to pick it up, but I'm not a huge fan of Ramen....I eat it and am hungry 30 minutes later. Maybe eating it with this much chili sauce would make me too nauseous to want to eat anything else afterward.OK, that's it..........must....have......hot.....ramen!
*runs off to find some*
Thanks for the report. Yeah, I read the 2X is really 8,808 and double the hot rating. But the 4X is phony. The 4X is only 2,700 SHU. It's even lower than the original. The 4X is Chinese flavor style noodle and not like the original or the 2X. I bought two more 5 pack of the original since that was on sale and not the 2X. I'll pick up 2X when it's on sale.
It doesn't seem all that bad.
Well that last video, if you watched it, the guy added something extremely hot to it so it's not the same thing.Made some of them today, meh, hot definitely, but nothing nearly as crazy as these videos. Less hot than the vindaloo I get at the mediocre Indian place in town.

Thai roommate didn't think I could handle their spiciest spices, but it didn't phase me.Anyone tried this instant noodle and completed the challenge? I just learned about this from my daughter. I guess this was the rage on social media like one or two years ago. I guess I'm old.

Which tells me America's food taste is changing for the better. It speaks volume that you can buy this stuff in the US and people can enjoy and handle the heat. Something difficult even 20 years ago.Thai roommate didn't think I could handle their spiciest spices, but it didn't phase me.
I also tried a monster size pack of those black-package noodles in your second picture. Delicious.
That's my go to pepper for cooking.No problem. Then again, I grew up eating these everyday

I'm in it for the experience. I love heat(in my food. Weather can fuck right off). I have very few issues from eating hot stuff, and the rare occasions I do, I consider it part of the deal. Probably 90% of the food I get out is bland. When I have the opportunity, I like turning it up to 11.Different kind of hot though, vindaloos have that cinnamon heat right? Deal breaker for me.
Korean food is my jam, bring it on. The hek buldak is about as spicy as I want things though. I'm all for an endorphin rush,don't get me wrong, but I want to be able to taste all the other things on the table too. Food so hot it makes your ears burn and you're practically hallucinating? No thanks, I'm not trying to prove anything here. People who go all LA Beast with the heat confuse me. While I don't suffer any GI distress from spicy foods, I hear about it constantly from those who do. Why do people hate their tastebuds and O-rings?

Then stop being a wuss and do like the guy in the video did, start adding this to your "bland" food.

Holy crap at 79 bucks that better be some serious stuff lol.

Nope. Already said I don't do extracts. They're talentless creations. Anyone can mix some chemicals together to get something usable. I appreciate the breeding skill of growers, and the mixing skill of hotsauce makers to get a tasty blend. Same reason I wouldn't vape. It's just a bunch of chemicals anyone with a gas spectrometer could put together. Growing, curing, and blending tobacco is an art, and I appreciate art.Then stop being a wuss and do like the guy in the video did, start adding this to your "bland" food.
