TL;DR Summary

A 14-year-old boy from Massachusetts died unexpectedly after eating a spicy tortilla chip, leaving his family devastated.

The company promotes a "one chip challenge" and invites consumers to post videos of themselves eating the product made from two of the world's hottest peppers. The boy's mother believes he should have been sent to the hospital instead of home after experiencing intense stomach pain at school. The incident has raised concerns about the warnings associated with the Pacqui chips.
