BOSTON: A lawsuit was filed July 11 against Hershey, Walgreens and several others in the case of a Massachusetts teen who died after he participated in a spicy tortilla chip challenge that was widely promoted on social media.
Harris Wolobah, a 10th grader from the city of Worcester, died Sept 1, 2023, after eating the Paqui chip as part of the manufacturer’s “One Chip Challenge”. An autopsy found Wolobah died after eating a large quantity of chile pepper extract and also had a congenital heart defect.
