Definitely hotter than Samyang 2x spicy noodle.
Not even touching the milk during and after the session. :3 pic.twitter.com/YuWJ7ZacZb

10 times spicier than chilli padi
The ghost pepper is known for hitting above 1,000,000 Scoville heat units (SHU) on the Scoville scale.
In comparison, the chilli padi stands between 50,000 to 100,000 SHU.

If you're intimidated by the almost black noodles, you'd be happy to know that it's actually made using cocoa powder and berry extract, without any artificial colouring or additive.
Available for limited time only
The instant noodles will be available in 7-Eleven Singapore stores from September 2019.
Each cup will retail for S$2.90.
Don't take your time, though, as it is only available for a limited time of two months.
Good luck.
