da bomb hot sauce. love it, but can only use a few drops

>>17064279
Its an extract, you're only meant to use a few drops

>>17064182
I thought this was ramen and just threw the pouch of sauce on the water, but is in fact some sort of yakisoba

>>17064311
yeah, you just cook the noodles, drain the water and then add the packets. there are einstructions on the back

>>17064358
I didnt read the instructions, just left the water boil toss the noodles in with the stuff of the packets, and left it alone until it was cook
All because I thought it was ramen

>>17064182
The only moment I love spicy is when I notice it at the very end of a meal. Does nothing for me otherwise.

>>17064182
I got the 2x spicy version of your pic and barely finished the bowl. I think that was my limit.

>>17064182
I was you a while ago but I just kept pushing myself with hot sauces and eventually the 2x spicy. Just gotta keep going.

>>17064182
milk

>>17064182
i bought this and used my usual rule of only using half of whats in the spice packets etc
i couldn't eat it without crying out "WOOOOOOOO"
every fucking forkful
do motherfuckers actually put the whole packet in that shit? its basically inedible at that point

>>17064625
>i couldn't eat it without crying out "WOOOOOOOO"

>>17064182
I got the 2x spicy version of this, I've cleaned 4 bowls.

It's the hottest instant ramen I've ever had. Anything hotter I could probably eat it, but I wouldn't enjoy it.

This shit's really good.

>>17064625
>i couldn't eat it without crying out "WOOOOOOOO"

>>17064182
I usually buy the sauce by the bottle and put it on shitty 5/$1 ramen. x2 spicy isn't as good as the regular black bottle to me, it goes too far over the flavor/spicy ratio. I ate this shit multiple times a day for months until I started developing intense stomach pain that would wake me up at night even when I didn't eat this; so I stopped eating it all together. Idk if I developed a stomach ulcer or what.

>>17064625
Im with you anon, i had to make weird noises and flap my arms wildly after every bite

>>17064182
I have no spice tolerance and I honestly didn't think these were very hot. Like maybe 1.5x as hot as hot cheetos. Maybe I cooked it wrong idk

>>17065063
you made it into a soup, didn't you

>>17065074
nope

>>17065047
There was a kid in South Korea who ate a pack of thr 2x spicy noodles everyday for 2 years and he got stomach cancer

>>17064182
Not gonna lie, my limit that i still can eat and kinda like is sambal oelek

>>17064182
The 2x one is the only ramen I eat and it’s an enjoyable spice for me

>>17064182
This shit hurts to eat but I can at least finish it. Taste is actually pretty alright, just can't taste much of it over the spice. I tried it once as is, but then I tried adding cheese, heavy cream, and a scrambled egg to the noodles (it cooks the egg) and it actually makes it palatable.

>>17064625
>i couldn't eat it without crying out "WOOOOOOOO"

>>17064279
That shit tastes vile. Habanero is the hottest I go. Anything hotter is almost certainly a meme

white guy here
i cant handle anything salty

>>17064410
yeah this tbqh
I took two forkfuls of that and had to reduce the spice a little with chicken stock

>>17065059
i pretty much did this aswell along yelling "WOOOO"
>>17065554
basically yes

>>17064182
my brother eats this with no problem, i can't even finish one packet. How do i get to his level?

the pink ones with cheese and the curry ones are much better.

>>17066640
I keep hearing the pink ones are best. I need to try those.

>>17064284
Sneed

>>17064625
>i couldn't eat it without crying out "WOOOOOOOO"

>>17064311
There is a soup version.

>>17064182
Some days I can handle this like eating normal ramen, other days it's hot as fuck. Has something to do with how much water you leave in I think.

>>17067148
On days when I'm straight it's no problem. If I have a hangover then I'm much more sensitive to it.

>>17064182
One of these cunts mixed in with a can of coconut cream (with whatever vegetables/chicken/beef) is my max limit.

>>17064182
just use less than half the sauce packet fagets
this is the best ramen aside from the heat desu

>>17067231
give peas a chance

laos style green papaya salad to the point where a modest forkful has a couple thai chilis pulverized into it. I need raw cabbage and ice water though. flavor is amazing though
>>17064182
this shit is absolutely amazing though (1x, 2x, and pink... mostly 2x). especially if you add a fried egg with lots of yolk, thin slice onion, a thin cut chinese sausage, and an excessive amount of furikake (mishima green label). I have eaten this every other day for 3 years for breakfast/lunch/midnight and I swear this combination is peak packet noodles.
>>17066640
incorrect

>>17067231
is that better than maeploy? ive never seent it.

>>17067300
Never tried that. Doesn't seem to be available here at least in small amounts.
The yellow can massaman is really nice, not spicy though. Red can is similar to the green but about half as spicy.

>>17064311
did you not even look at the fucking picture?

>>17064625
NATURE BOY

>>17066790
the pink one is very sweet. I think the cheese one is the best personally

>>17065234
That kid? Albert Einstein.

>>17067491
You got to go back

>>17064182
Never found my level, but never tried that hard either. I think I tapped out on one of these, but a big part of that was the taste. I made them like regular Ramen instead of following the package instructions and they were gross.

korea has the highest per capita rate of stomach cancer in the world

>>17065739
black guy here i cant handle not breaking the law

>>17064182
I can easily eat anything 'hot' that isn't 'the whole point of it is to be so hot as to be inedible'. I don't see the point of that shit. Pepper-spraying perfectly good food and then painfully forcing it down your gullet doesn't make you a tough guy.

A question to Americans: how true is the stereotype of white Americans being unable to handle spicy food/preferring bland food? Is it just a black twitter thing?

I've lived in China and they all seemed to think that anything containing trace amounts of chillies would be lethal to me (they all assumed I'm American). I always had to insist that they make the food proper hot and they would always be awestruck by the laowei that eats hotter stuff than they do with ease. Condescending chinks.

>>17068219
>Is it just a black twitter thing?
Yes.

Most americans are fine with spicy food that isn't *stupidly* spicy. Suburban Karens are a notable exception. Seen one cussing out a dish because caraway was too spicy for her.

>>17064625
PUSSI BOOOOOOIIIIIII

>>17065739
Is ok fren

>>17066790
I see pink and it just turns me off because I associate pink with candy and I'm an illiterate amerimutt so I don't read it

>the final boss.

>>17068219
Some white guys i know have eaten insane spice and been fine while black guys i know either pretend to be hard by using those chinese take away hot sauces which are super mild or just straight up don't even bother with heat. It's purely a meme, but considering blacks, especially nowadays, are trying their hardest to style on whites, it gets pushed endlessly

>>17068260
is there a 4x spicy though

>>17064182
This tastes great but my tongue and mouth fucking hurt like hell after getting halfway through a serving of it. I know Koreans often do a lot with these packets so I guess you could add some ingredients to make it both more filling and less hot.

>>17064625
>forkful
baka gaijin, you're supposed to eat them with chopsticks you fucking savage

>>17064182
I ate the 2x one and it was pretty fucking spicy, but i could't stop eating for some reason. spent the next 10 minutes in the shower to wash off the tears and spit.

honestly it was pretty tasty but like all instant noodles you need some vegetables and meat to make it a real meal.

>>17067451
No, my sister just gave it to me
And I just started making it
We usually buy another korean brand of ramyun called ottogi, is cheaper than this shit, even thought it comes from korea like this one

>>17064182
Is that one an especially spicy flavor? On the other flavors packets the chicken usually isn't breathing fire.

>>17064182
I tend to avoid pepper extracts because they taste bitter and rubbery, on top of being way too hot. The natural burn and flavor of scorpion pepper is about my limit.

>>17068219
>Is it just a black twitter thing?
Blacks assume all white cooking is KFC and bologna sandwiches. In reality they hoot n holler over anything hotter than Frank's.

I grow a lot of pepper varieties including super hots and basically there is no limit to the tolerance. I usually try a pepper off each plant to get an idea of what is going on with it and I make a pepper/salt mash with the collected harvest of each harvest which I'll try a spoon of before making sauces etc. All super hots are generally equally brutal without being identical. Generally I'm in for a bad time for about 10 minutes, hopping around, groaning, having my nose and eyes running, but like everything it all must come to an end and everything passes in time. I've never fucked with extract or anything based on extract because I've no interest or need. In all honesty I don't care about heat for the sake of heat or enduring a burn or anything really other than what that pepper tastes like and how best to utilise it. I just categorise them according to heat (so I know how much to use in a sauce) and try to work out what flavour profile they have to work out what will combine with them. Most of my hot sauces use about 9% habenero type and 3% scorpion type which is about pretty hot to hot to me. This is the point where you can freely eat it in small amounts, but if you have too much too quickly you'll get in trouble and need to take a minute. On a scale of 1 to 10 where 1 is a supermarket scotch bonnet/jamacian pepper sauce I'm at about a 4, maybe 35-40 times as hot as scotch bonnet sauces.

>hot chicken flavored ramen
