    I’ve had the 2x. It’s definitely one of the spicier things you can get off a normal grocery store shelf. Even as a big spice fan it’s right on the edge of what I actually find enjoyable. Not over the edge, though, it’s my favorite ramen

      The 2x is a bit too much for me, but sometimes my partner and I make two packets, one black (1x for those not in the know) and one 2x and call it 1.5x and that’s pretty good.

      Tbh tho, while not as spicy, the cream carbonara and the habanero lime flavors are both incredible (separately)

    I love me some Buldak. I buy the sauce in a bottle from the Korean grocery store near me.

    Whenever I have a cold, and my sinuses get clogged, I have a bowel of ramen and I can breathe better than I’m healthy.

      You’re actually supposed to snort it. I would know. I’m half korean. That being said, merely eating it works too, just not as well.

    Cue the Danish Samyang Challenge on social media. Packets will sell for increasing amounts on eBay or whatever with ‘I can take it’ vikings eager to prove their manliness (or womanliness) by consuming the noodles on TikTok.

    I don’t blame them. The 2x ramyun is overwhelming hot. I can only imagine that the 3x would be hospitalizing.

    Someone brought a bunch of these bowls to my work months ago. I don’t think anyone finished a whole bowl due to the spice level. It was entertaining to see everyone’s reactions.
