Doc Posted February 11, 2020 Share Posted February 11, 2020 What's the big deal about puffer fish flesh? Is it merely the danger of it? Unless it's the best fish I've ever tasted, it's not worth the risk (and probably money). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drinking soda is bad for you long term. The pufferfish sounds more like Russian roulette. I’d need to know more before I could take a comfortable stance there. NOT that I wouldn’t try it, but I’d need to know more. Haven't had any pop in at least 10 years... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll have a Diet Coke a couple times a year if I’m having wings or pizza. Had one last week when I took my mom for lunch! Those are rare events. Maybe a couple more if I go to the movies a few times a year. I’m an Arnold Palmer guy if I go out to lunch, and for dinner it’s water and wine. I prefer the wine.

Update:. Sammy is calling me poonda sheemo but I don't know what it means or how to spell it. I just sounded it out. It doesn't sound like a compliment when you hear his tone.

It was once forbidden. Its expensive and therefore exclusive. Fabled great taste. Some preparations leave a bit of toxin behind and give you a tingling sensation of being drunk which apparently is really nice when you're already kind of drunk.

flaz Posted February 12, 2020 Author Share Posted February 12, 2020 I found no such tinglage from the two southern puffers I consumed 2 nights ago. I did however, get a tingle from my blend. In fact I have a little tingle as I type, from the coffee and blend I just finished Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it isn't certified wild caught I won't eat any fish. The farmed crap from random countries is just that... crap. Friends don't let friends eat tilapia. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
