BellaOnline Forums Food and Wine Japanese Food Would you try "fugu" poison blowfish?

I wonder what it tastes like and who on Earth (the poor things) discovered you could only eat one specific part - you can imagine them all around a dinner table dropping dead - head in dish - and then one being left "oh well, I guess this part isn't poisoness" LOL -

I would never try it - I think it's silly and a bit like showing off. Plus, isn't it ridiculously expensive?
