I think if eating a single chip could kill you based on a condition you might not know about or know that it could make things worse for you, it shouldn’t be sold. It’s not a slow death by junk food. It’s not an allergy situation, so some random kid might go “doc says I’m not allergic to chips, I’ll try it”.
Everyone implicitly understands that there’s a risk to riding a rollercoaster. I’d wager that the vast majority wouldn’t ever think you could die from eating something too spicy. I’d imagine the worst consequence in almost everyone’s minds would be feeling miserable for the next hour or so. Even if you know you have a condition you probably would not know that spice could kill you over it.
Your average person isn’t aware of the risk whether or not they have a preexisting condition and therefore cannot make an informed choice.
Plus the marketing on the packaging is designed to sell itself. It’s just a cool challenge to most people, nothing on the product itself would make you think it could kill you. The packaging needs to at least be similar to the diseased lungs they put on cigarettes these days.
also it's a chip that induces great physical pain that people buy because of social media challengeswhich has killed kids I am more than fine banning that
The chip is more than just “very spicy” though, and there is not a single legitimate dish in the world that would even approach the level of spicy found here. You don’t eat it to savor the flavor, you eat it to show off to your friends.
It’s quite possible that a condition that wouldn’t affect eating what most people consider to be “very spicy” could be deadly if you try the SpiceMaxx 3000 Hot Chip.
It should be very clear the level of risk you could be taking on by torturing yourself for TikTok fame.
You should never count on a teenager knowing better.

there's a difference between eating something very spicy and deliberately ingesting pepper spray for a laugh
