So may peanuts, but I don’t think we should label peanuts with “may cause death”?
There are too many nuances and exceptions to everything for such a warning to be meaningful. Most things can kill you, doesn’t mean they will unless you got some other medical condition or do something unreasonable.
Your eyes swelling shut is called “viper hypnosis.” Severe stomach cramps is like “stomach ouchies” or something, with an image of little guy curled up on the floor.
No. It just highlights the stupidity of people following online challenges.
Apart from that, those chips were labeled 18+, IIRC. How the heck did they get into the mouth of a 14 year old?

No warning that it might cause death though.

Probably because unless you’re 1 out of several million people that have eaten the chip, you aren’t going to die because you ate something spicy.
The packaging is in the shape of a coffin
It also says “face the Reaper” and “any last words?” Guess they need to be more explicit and add an asterisk that says “face the Reaper*”
*seriously this chip will kill you
Or at least not mocking it.
Look at the label “what to expect.”

It’s designed for proper chilliheads to test their mettle, anyone experienced with spicy food should be well aware of what to expect already.
Oooo, I like that argument. Any law students, here’s a note topic for you.
Especially in this case, labeling something 18+ is just a marketing gimmick that makes it more likely for it to be eaten by 14 year olds.
There are no legal restrictions on selling it so someone will sell it, and it appearing “forbidden” makes it more attractive.
There isn’t in your place? What a lawless hellhole. Are kids allowed to buy booze and smokes, too?
because age limits don’t work
