I think Homer is forbidden from eating fugu too.

So, we have established that Vonskippy is not the Emperor of Japan.

A few years back, I had Fugu Sashimi in a tiny restaurant just outside of Shibuya. Wasn't all that exciting - and the taste wasn't anything memorable. Except for a short lived cocaine-esque tingle on my lips and tongue, it was just like any other Sashimi dish (except it's really really expensive for such a minor thrill).

I would never risk dying for an exquisite meal.

Would you try it?

Wasn't that bit about the puffer fish in Charlies' Angels?

That pufferfish really shouldn't be out of the water. Cute, but probably dead.
