Fugu (Japanese pufferfish). Its not that it tastes terrible or anything, but the slightest screw up when preparing it can cause death. So would you eat it?

I don't know, I'm torn between the choices, but I'd probably go with no.

Funny story.

My sister enrolled in the JET program, which is essentially where you teac hJapanese students English. So my family and I go and visit her over Christmas and New Years for a few weeks and while in Japan my syster and I get a little drink, walk into a restaurant, adn order fugu. We eat it, daring eachother, fully awar of the consequences but not giving a damn.

We wake up the next morin, hngover, and say "I cant beluive we just ate Fugu".

Can it be fried? If so then yeah I would. But first I would make sure the person who prepared it was highly skilled and knew what they were doing.

Its funny because I was watching the Food Network where this guy goes around tasting different alcohol. He went to Japan to taste Saké and apparently there are vending machines with it on almost every corner, and its an alcoholic drink :|

Ya its cool. We walked for a few hours and it was late so I saw a vending machine with some Sapporo in it, so I bought a beer, sat on the curb, and drank it. Very nice.

I didnt see any panties vending machines but I have heard of them

I think so too. If it was worth dying over like some test from God then I would definitely eat it.

So how do they regulate if you're over 18? Man I could see myself becoming a filthy drunk if we had those things here. Also yes I would for sure try Fugu if prepared by a chef with a good reputation.
