Can buldak ramen give you cancer?

My hostel friends and I love making Buldak ramen late at night; it's our comfort food. There's always some talk about instant noodles being unhealthy in general, but can this specific kind really give you cancer? I'm getting a little worried.

Hey, take a deep breath. Buldak ramen absolutely does not cause cancer. It is just extremely spicy, which might upset your stomach if you have too much of it. Just enjoy it in moderation and don't stress over these online rumors.

Honestly, the only thing Buldak is killing is my sleep schedule with late-night acidity, not giving me cancer! It is just regular processed ramen. If you can handle the burning tongue, go ahead and eat it, you're fine.

No way! If Buldak caused cancer, half of the internet foodies would be in trouble. It is completely safe, just make sure to add some cheese or egg to cut down the crazy spice. Happy eating!

The only thing endangered by Buldak is your toilet seat the next morning! There is absolutely no cancer risk here, my friend. Keep some cold milk handy and enjoy the spice.

I literally eat Buldak all the time and had the same worry! Thankfully, it's just a myth. It won't cause cancer, though the high sodium and spice can definitely give you a bad stomach ache if you're not careful. Just eat it once in a while!

My kids eat this fiery stuff and I always tell them their stomach will protest, but cancer? No, that is just extreme internet drama. It's safe, just not a replacement for a healthy home-cooked meal.
