webfact Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 Meal of puffer fish kills 2 men in 60sThe NationBANGKOK: -- Chanrit Boonsorn, 60, was pronounced dead at the local hospital yesterday. His 64-year-old neighbour in tambon Hua Reu, Boonma Jumket, also died on Saturday after eating soup made from puffer fish he caught in Lam Nam Siew.The meal was so toxic that when the remaining soup was poured out to feed chickens, 11 of them died. Authorities have urged Hua Reu people to avoid puffer fish because of its deadly toxin, which cannot be destroyed by heat of 170 degrees Celsius.Seventh Health Service Area official Dr Itthipol Sungkhaeng said the two men had consumed a lot of puffer fish along with some alcoholic drinks, helping the toxin to spread faster through their bodies and lead to their deaths.

RIP to the chickens, wonder if they were then sold at the fresh market There are around 120 species of Puffer Fish,occurring in Freshwater,Brackish and Marine waters,I have even caught a species up here in Chiang Mai a long way from the sea. A few years ago some factories in Bangkok area where busted for processing Puffer fish and selling it as chicken breast,which actually was difficult to tell apart. The most toxic parts are the organs. regards Worgeordie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BestBitterPhuket Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 I have eaten pufferfish before, but prepared in a Japanese restaurant. I survived, so they probably knew how to cut the fish without spilling the toxins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hint to government: make it illegal for kids to skip school at a young age. Then you will get a better educated workforce. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Water Buffalo Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 (edited) Note to self: procure puffer fish and cook a delicious meal for my mother-in-law the local mafia dudes where i live. Another thing is: they knew the puffer fish is poisonous. Everyone knows that. They just thought that it had been prepared in such a way that it was safe.
