It is tragic and so unnecessary. And yes, parents should educate their kids on things like these, and in my opinion, "foods" like this should not be sold as food if there are significant, acute risks associated with them - i.e. if they are not generally safe to consume, then don't sell them as food. The whole marketing pretext of this product - that it's "fun", because it's going to be horribly painful and unpleasant to eat, is flawed from the get-go. Drano could roll out a line of cocktail mix-ins, if that's the drill. What fun!

I can't view the new article. Weren't these chips taken off the shelves when this happened? Are they back?

Eating a spicy chip and eating detergent is NOT the same thing by a really long shot.

It's the other way around...

But while the autopsy results suggest that a heart defect probably made Harris more vulnerable to the negative effects of the chili pepper extract, people without underlying risk factors can also experience serious heart problems from ingesting large amounts of capsaicin, Haider said.
