At what point do companies have an obligation to save someone from themselves? There’s ample warning on this package that he shouldn’t have been eating it at his age or experience with spicy foods. There’s a possible argument the shop that sold it to him or his peers is at fault, but there’s not much more the manufacturers could have done to warn him off.
Listing the reason why they have those warnings seems pretty reasonable. That way kids could know that it’s not “some nanny state bs”. The verbage of those warnings is on par with “this is unhealthy if you do this” not “this is potentially lethal if you do this”. So again, honestly, how is it as stupid as drinking bleach?
