“So really, unless we have a credible advocate of Fugu meat outside of the regular consumer base who will vouch for the taste, I’d be biased against the non-lethal farmed variety.”
I’m still here. The flavor is unique. I wasn’t so thrilled with it. I prefer the live monkey brains and live lobster tail, but don’t tell PETA that.
My lips are sealed...seriously - YUCK! LOL!!!
Please, what would you compare the flavor to? I'm curious, just not that curious to try it!
Then you should try the bear gallbladder and paws. Actually, I liked the paws but not so much the gallbladder.
If there’s one thing Japanese love, it’s tradition and the non-lethal fugu might not be a big seller. But they’re also into fads. A few years ago, the fad of serving sushi on a naked woman was popular among Japanese men (well, OK, all men). I went to one such dinner here in Chicago and the cost of the dinner was about $125/person and we barely got anyrhing to eat and although the gal had pretty skin, she was hardly drop-dead gorgeous. I think the novelty died a quiet death or maybe the prudish feminazis got wind of it.
