“Teens go to hospital after eating spicy crisps”
More than a dozen students have been taken to hospital after they became ill from eating extremely spicy crisps.
Rokugo Koka High School in Tokyo called for help on Tuesday at lunchtime after 13 girls and one boy, aged around 15 years, complained of nausea, as well as stomach and mouth pain.
The students had been eating the extremely spicy chips, labelled “18+ curry chips”, brought to the school by one of the students.
The company that makes the snack “forbids” under-18s from eating the crisps due to their extreme spiciness, which comes from the potent ghost pepper from northeastern India, one of the world’s hottest chillis.
