Isn't there more fish in the sea to choose from?

How did people come up with this. They died after eating this fish but there was always someone who thought "I'm gonna eat this fish anyway". And once they did survive... :-D

PerkyJoker11170, learned from a Columbo episode where a corrupt food critic kills a restaurant owner who won't pay his bribe and threatened to expose him. he put fugu poison in a bottle of wine using a syringe.

with so many foods available why eat something that can kill you? might be an ideal last meal on death row though would save the state some money.

PerkyJoker11170, I would pick a safer variety of fish.

I would only eat it if I was on death row and facing an electric chair. Who knows, maybe it would take forever to prepare it. They have to honor your last meal don’t they? It’s an option.

Tetrodotoxin interferes with the transmission of signals from nerves to muscles by blocking sodium channels. This results in rapid weakening and paralysis of muscles, including those of the respiratory tract, which can lead to respiratory arrest and death.

Last week was my first time fishing. I went fishing in a creek off the ocean. And guess what? I caught a porcupine fish! I was just excited because it was the first fish I’ve ever caught and panicked because I knew I had to carefully handle the fish and throw it back into the ocean!

smartpastor56, my expensive seafood treat will always be abalone and it is not toxic.

Zombies eat fish!

I remember the fugu fish episode from the Simpsons..classic episode..
João Ferreira
I mean, Fugu can also be served raw. So sushi would technically be a correct answer, albeit a more generalized one

I had Monkfish for the first time tonight. It was fantastic! But if you Google it and look at a picture of this fish you will die of FRIGHT!!

as a child I ate this. my dad was taught by an old woman who stopped us from throwing the fish away at a dock in the Chesapeake bay.
