Did a teenager actually just die from eating raw noodles?

Asking because throughout my life (including when I was little) I've eaten cups full of raw pasta (the rice shaped little pasta) almost like it was a drink. I finished a 500g packet of wholewheat dry spaghetti just the other day. This is something I actually do so often I got told off by my dentist last year because it's wearing my teeth down.
