Is the One Chip Challenge Still a Thing in 2025?

The Challenge That Broke the Internet

In a world obsessed with viral food trends, the One Chip Challenge became the ultimate test of spice tolerance. A single, coffin-boxed tortilla chip dusted with the world’s hottest peppers — the Carolina Reaper and Scorpion Pepper — sent millions of people (and their taste buds) into meltdown mode. TikTok, YouTube, and Instagram exploded with reaction videos, some hilarious and others alarming.

But now it’s 2025, and people are wondering: is it still a thing? Is the One Chip Challenge even available anymore? Has the trend fizzled out, or is it hotter than ever?

Yes — You Can Still Get the One Chip Challenge in 2025

Despite controversy and bans in some schools and countries, the One Chip Challenge is still very much alive — and just as brutal. The good news? You can buy the 2025 version right here at Loaded Stuff. It’s fresh, legit, and guaranteed to deliver the same eye-watering, nose-running, panic-inducing intensity it’s famous for.

Each chip is sealed in a foil pouch and comes in the iconic coffin-shaped box — with new warnings and a date stamp so you know you're not eating a 3-year-old chip.

What’s Changed Since the Challenge First Launched?

The core formula remains the same — a single chip coated in fiery seasoning. But there have been some important updates:

  • Updated Packaging: Better warnings, clearer ingredients, and production date for safety and freshness.
  • Regulated Distribution: Some suppliers have pulled it due to health concerns, making legit versions harder to find.
  • More Competition: New spicy contenders like the Lil' Nitro World's Hottest Gummy Bear are turning up the heat and attracting daredevils everywhere.

But make no mistake — the One Chip Challenge is still the reigning king of painful food dares.

Why the One Chip Challenge Is Still Trending in 2025

Challenges come and go, but the One Chip lives on because it delivers what the internet loves most: extreme reactions. Crying. Screaming. Gasping. Throwing up (occasionally). It's not just a chip — it's a social media moment.

Creators across TikTok, YouTube Shorts, and Instagram Reels continue to rack up millions of views. People film their parents, friends, coworkers, and sometimes themselves going through a spicy trial by fire. It's entertaining, unpredictable, and slightly dangerous — the perfect formula for going viral.

There’s also the collectors’ angle. Spice lovers often buy both the chip and Lil' Nitro to compare the heat levels or challenge their friends back-to-back.

Should You Try It?

If you're someone who likes to live on the edge (and has a decent pain tolerance), the One Chip Challenge is a must-try at least once. But take this seriously:

  • **It’s not for children.**
  • **It’s not for anyone with allergies, asthma, or digestive issues.**
  • **It’s not a casual snack.**

Make sure you have milk, gloves, tissues, and a camera ready before taking the plunge. Oh, and don’t touch your eyes. Ever.

Pro Tips for Surviving the Challenge

  • Don't eat on an empty stomach — have some carbs beforehand.
  • Use gloves to handle the chip. The powder can linger and burn.
  • Have milk or ice cream nearby. Water won’t help.
  • Film it — you’ll either want to brag or laugh later.

When you're done crying, treat yourself to something sweet like our S'mores Loaded Peanut Butter Jar — the perfect cool-down dessert after playing with fire.
