The company behind the “One Chip Challenge” product confirmed it is removing its product from stores after a teenager in Massachusetts reportedly died after partaking in the social media trend.

Paqui LLC, which makes the product, said it is now “actively working with retailers to remove the product from shelves,” according to a news release issued late last week.
