webfact Posted February 24, 2015 Author Share Posted February 24, 2015 Globefish eating is highly unsafeBANGKOK: -- The Public Health Ministry to warn villagers not to eat globefish as it is poisonous and can cause death. Warning came after two villagers at Tambon Huarua in Kumpawapi district of Maha Sarakham died after eating the poisonous fish.Public health office Dr Ithipol Sungkeng said the two villages caught the globefish from Lamnam Siew river and cooked it as food.Both reportedly ate the fish in large part and also drank liquor.Eating the poisonous fish and drinking liquor at the same time could cause the poison to spread all over the body, weaken the muscle and stop the heart beats, he said.He said although the fish was cooked with over 170 degree Celsius, heat could not destroy the poison.According to a fishery expert, globefish are found both in fresh and salt water and they all are unsafe to eat.The poisons are accumulated in the liver and intestines.Safe eating must be prepared by professional like in Japan who must be certified how to properly and safely slice the fish, he said.But in Thailand, villagers cooked the whole fish without slicing off the poisonous parts, thus is highly unsafe to eat even though it was heated at over 170 degrees Celsius.Source: http://englishnews.thaipbs.or.th/globefish-eating-highly-unsafe -- Thai PBS 2015-02-24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ExPratt Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 (edited) ",,,, which cannot be destroyed by heat of 170 degrees Celsius." Might be an idea to try 171 degrees perhaps that might work ? Edited February 24, 2015 by ExPratt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Squeegee Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Note to self: remember 3rd grade science. Do not eat puffer fish. RIP to the chickens and everyone else.3rd grade science for us. I wonder if it is even taught here at all?RIP A lot of loso Thai men leave school at a early age because school is not cool. Thus they don't make it to science classes. Hint to government: make it illegal for kids to skip school at a young age. Then you will get a better educated workforce. Since when did any Thai government want an educated workforce?

GinBoy2 Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 As tragic as this it, I was just watching on Channel 3 an 'expert' explaining to Sorayuth that even in Japan, death is common from Fugu poisoning, he quoted 50-100 annually. Couldn't quite believe that, and courtesy of the wonders of the Internet, more like 30-40 hospitalizations and 3-6 deaths. Just once I'd like Thai's to actually admit a problem, then maybe they could educate a fix, rather that just rely on the usual denials and deflections Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And who in the hell feeds chicken fish after it killed several people? "And who in the hell feeds chicken fish after it killed several people?" Certainly not the those involved in this incident, they succumbed later Probably an act of saving face and destroying the evidence, 'cause chicken can't talk and are just food source...
