I can’t believe there is 3x spicy version of the buldak. How can someone even eat that?! Damn!

I consider myself to have a pretty high spice tolerance but l couldn’t finish even the 2x spicy. I couldn’t imagine 3x

u/sneakyartinthedark Feb 01 '24
No offense, but I don’t think you have a very high spice tolerance.
Also not trying to one up anyone, but the 2x is super easy to get used to, if you have it often.

At least in USA, the average person can't even handle the 1X

But do we really want to have it often? It for sure is not good for your digestive system

If u eat the 2x long enough, u get used to the spice, 2x is nt spicy 4 me anymore so i eat 3x too

Fun fact: if you eat the 2x long enough to get used to it (think multiple times per week), one day your body could possibly just say, “nah” and vomit up the 2x every time you try to eat it again.
Another fun fact: The 2x mixed with stomach acid turns into 3x when it comes back up.

Did this happen to you? I’ve been eating it for a while and I’m fine and healthy.

u/sarcasticb Feb 01 '24
It did. I had been eating them semi-regularly for over a year, but one day out of the blue my stomach just couldn’t handle it anymore.

THIS! The 2X wrecks me for a solid day after.

u/DangerNyoom Jan 31 '24
Does 2x stand for the number of bites you can take? Because I took 2 bites before I gave up in favor of a meal that doesn't hurt me.

Have you tried ordering from countries that do not abide by the Geneva Convention?

Holy wow!! Please let us know your thoughts on each one (the Buldak 3X, in particular). I haven't seen that one anywhere but on Amazon, at a stupid-high price for just one or two bags.

u/BlankAdaptability Sep 20 '24
Correction - Amazon now has a multi-pack for $23 usd. Still stupid high but better than the single bag price.

u/BlankAdaptability Sep 20 '24
I've been making "3X+" by adding capsaicin to the 2X. Would love to get my hands on the actual 3X to compare/benchmark.

Omg 3x?? Youre mad. One thing i do is i mix an egg at the final step. Its lessens the spiciness but ups the flavor
