A Japanese pufferfish prepared as a delicacy; extremely poisonous if not prepared correctly by a licensed chef.
From Japanese 'fugu' (河豚), where 河 means 'river' and 豚 means 'pig.' The name references the fish's pig-like snout and river habitat.
Fugu is one of the most dangerous foods in the world—its liver contains tetrodotoxin 1,000 times deadlier than cyanide, yet eating it is considered a ultimate culinary adventure in Japan!
