Do Not try This At Home

Fugu is a pufferfish that can be deadly to humans due to tetrodotoxin, a poison the fish produces when it feeds on poisonous starfish, snails and other creatures. The aquatic animal must be carefully prepared by expert chefs to remove the toxic parts, such as intestines, ovaries and liver. A winter time delicacy in Japan, the expensive fish is enjoyed in sashimi and as an hot pot ingredient. - AsNotedIn
