Events may come and go but memories remain.

While you can look back on certain ones and smile on their greatness, I have one in particular that brings nothing but pain.

Physical pain.

Members of my office very well know what I’m referring to when bringing this topic up.

Mamee’s Ghost Pepper Noodles may have tasted good but boy, did it cause me some pain and an unholy amount of perspiration.

I once thought that I wouldn’t have to see this terror again but…

…it’s back and repackaged.

Ghosting It’s Way To Stores

I’m feeling like that Backstreet Boys song now.

Tell me why ain’t nothing but a heartache (stomach ache).

If some of you have been to Malaysia, you may be quite familiar with what I’m about to show you.

It was recently announced that the infamous ghost pepper Mamee noodle snack will now be available in local 7-Eleven stores!


As much pain as it causes me to look at, the value is pretty serious.

A pack of five costs only S$1.50 and is only available while stocks last. If you want your dose of pain then you better hit the train now.

Or just walk to whichever 7-Eleven is nearby.

What causes more horrifying flashbacks is that it looks just like the packet noodle did inside: dark coloured but with some hints of chilli on it.

Call me out for being cowardly but all I’m saying if something has to be eaten ‘at a risk’, I’m definitely not out to burn my stomach lining.

Even if it does taste really good.

Some Fun Stuff For You

As mentioned before, you might’ve seen this if you’ve been to Malaysia.

Though not as often as some may believe.

The ghost pepper snack was found randomly in large Mamee value packs, meaning that you had to be one of the (un)fortunate ones to scour it out.

At least now choosing pain is a free choice.

Another eye-opener for you is how spicy this thing actually is on the Scoville Scale.

Like, 1 million Scoville Heat Units (SHU).

Let me give you a rough idea of how spicy that is.

A typical Tabasco sauce is around 2500 to 5000 SHU and a chilli padi is between 25000 to 50000 SHU.

If you’re bad with spice don’t even think about eating this one.

Or, actually, you know what? Do it! Maybe you can stand it and enjoy the full flavours of the noodles that I didn’t manage to.

But I’ll personally pass on this one, thanks.
