This chip isn’t merely “very spicy food”, it is explicitly designed to be a challenge. One single chip costs $10 and the packaging is literally shaped like a coffin.
So I think this is the problem, the packaging says only for adults (these kids were obviously not adults), not for those sensitive to spicy food or with allergies to what I can assume are the main ingredients.
I know disclaimers are a bit woolly as to what can stand up in court, but what more should they have put:
Maybe, just maybe we should put our pitchforks away until we know if the chip mentioned is responsible?
But… my pitchfork?
Are you saying we shouldn’t put all our chips in one basket?
Or not to count the chips before they hatch?
No. On the Internet, all human events occur in the 68% range.

Common sense is waiting for an official diagnosis from a certified professional investigating the actual body for the cause of death.
Not speculation from people on the internet that haven’t even seen the body.
Nah, mate. Knowing something you didn’t even bother to learn is the definition of common sense, which I made up myself.
You…yeah, I like you. You’re alright. Here, hold my pitchfork so I can light my torch.
Uh, I mean, you can die at any one time without anything directly causing it. So no, it’s not necessarily common sense.
And spicy foods, even very spicy ones, are consumed daily without too much medically bad happening… certainly not more than, say, eating peanuts.

Sure, but people also eat the hottest peppers in existence and are fine… medically speaking.
Like, yeah, it probably puts some strain on your body, but by itself I don’t think it should be majorly harmful.
Is it the chip’s fault if this turns out to be an allergic reaction or something like that?

A warning would help sales too.
