    Jamaican here Once you've eaten ackee, you'll never stop. You'd be begging for more. It's part of our national dish: "ackee and salt fish". It's very tasteful especially when prepared with natural spices: peppers, onions, tomatoes, black pepper and so on. So find yourself a Jamaican restaurant & order it with some fried dumplings (it can be eaten with anything else). Death from this fruit is so rare that anyone that dies from it usually makes the headlines and seems very "suspicions".

    I find it interesting that pineapple on pizza is known as Hawaiian, a state where they routinely cook their meat with a sweet sauce. Hawaiian is also popular in Jamaica where I live, and we make our meat with sweet sauces occasionally as well. It might just be popular with people who are used to a sweet taste accompanying their meats. I don't have enough evidence to make a conclusion though.

    Famous chef Anthony Bourdain on eating an ortolan “I bring my molars down and through my bird’s rib cage with a wet crunch and am rewarded with a scalding hot rush of burning fat and guts down my throat. Rarely have pain and delight combined so well. I’m giddily uncomfortable, breathing in short, controlled gasps as I continue slowly - ever so slowly - to chew. With every bite, as the thin bones and layers of fat, meat, skin, and organs compact in on themselves, there are sublime dribbles of varied and wondrous ancient flavors: figs, Armagnac, dark flesh slightly infused with the salty taste of my own blood as my mouth is pricked by the sharp bones. As I swallow, I draw in the head and beak, which, until now, have been hanging from my lips, and blithely crush the skull.” The fact that the pain of having your mouth cut and the flavor of blood enhances the experience is wild. Also Jeremy Clarkson has eaten this and quite liked it.

    In defense of the Birds Nest Soup, it contains high amount of protein and minerals, and are historically eaten as a supplement by people suffering from malnutrition, and is generally not considered as food. Historically these nests are plucked after they are deserted by the birds (as they leave their nests behind as soon as the baby birds take flight), but in more recent history people started plucking nests that are still home to bird families. In modern times, people actually build habitats for these birds to roost and nest in, and then collect the leftover nests after the birds leave. These birds are not fed in any way though, and still gather food in the wild.

Birds nest soup was one of these supplements. People would go great lengths to get some for a sickly family member. Then, in modern times, scientists look at the wacky medicines and go “haaar, it does nothing, just some common minerals”.

Throughout history, eating it is said to take courage and makes you more charming. Currently, in order to prepare fugu, a chef needs an extremely strict license that needs to be renewed regularly. The only thing I don't get is how the first guy that decided to eat fugu died from the poison, and then people kept trying to eat it.

On the other hand, I have no problem with in regularly do make broth out of the leftover parts of a fish or chicken. Roast to the bones and little remaining meat. Then boil it and add some vegetables or vegetable trimmings. Great stuff. A surprising amount of things we eat would make you sick or even kill you if not prepared properly. Unripened tomatoes or improperly ripened potatoes contain toxins. We forget that these are part of the nightshade family and the potato berry and the tomato tuber are both quite poisonous. You need to eat the potato tuber and the tomato fruit. Cassava is a staple food on par with wheat and potatoes. If improperly ripened and not fully cooked it too is poisonous. Many beans not only contain antinutrients but also toxins and need to be boiled or prepared to allow these to leach out. Sweet almonds contain a very tiny tiny amount of organic cyanide. They are a cultivar of bitter almonds which contain quite a bit of cyanide. In fact cyanide smells like almonds. My father was a partisan in World War II and carried cyanide around his neck and could smell it. It took him over a decade before he could enjoy almonds.

    Poland also has some strange stuff, although not as much as France. This dish is meant to use as much of an animal, that is being slaughtered, so less goes to waste. It's a soup made of guts (the name itself implies that - "flaki" - guts). Specifically cow guts, mostly stomach. I eat it sometimes and are often seen in grocery stores' freezers as ready-to-cook packets.

    I mean lots of plants have developed things to tell us not to eat them, but we eat them anyways. Best thing I can think of off the top of my head is how peppers grew to be spicy to stop being eaten, yet what do humans do? Seek them out even more specifically for those spices and try to cultivate them to be stronger in some cases. Ackee really isn't all that bad, and it's pretty easy to tell ripened ones from unripe ones. I've never had it tinned though since my house has an ackee tree, so I can't really say how those compare to freshly picked ones. But it's soft and really versatile. Heck, it's part of our national dish! I love ackee

    to be totally fair to Akee, /pork/ is a food that can kill you if its not prepared properly. and ackee has an extremely clear tell when its ripe. the pod splits completely open into a three lobed claw to drop seed. you have to go out of your way to open sealed ackee or chew on the pods to get sick for the most part. usually its kids who dont know any bettter getting poisoned. its not comparable to fugu at all, its a staple and iconic dish of the caribbean.

It was unlike anything I’d ever had, with a mouthwatering sour soup base and crunchy jelly sponge things that feel like what asmr sounds like when you bite them. So I asked for another bowl, but then I learned it had an insane price tag. Yeah. It was shark fin soup. I don’t think it’s available anymore these days, but back then it wasn’t controversial yet and we had no inkling that it was wrong. The business friend was just showing off his big bucks.

    So, Mr. Terry. The ash on cheese thing. Believe it or not, we've been using ash of all kinds (primarily vegetable ash) for thousands of years! The ash helps rind form and speeds fermentation up slightly because the alkaline nature of the ash helps balance out the acidity of the curd that can slow it down. It also is somewhat repellant to flies and other insects that may try to eat at the cheese while it ages. Wax, leaves, and other materials have also been used. Cheesemaking is actually a fascinating history topic because it's one of the oldest forms of long-lasting food humans discovered and utilized as a society. Its origins aren't known but some suspect that it was accidentally created when containers (possibly tied animal stomachs or hides) full of heated milk were stored in caves containing bacteria helpful to cheese formation. Similar stories for yogurt exist.

    The state I currently live in some guy literally spent 26 million dollars to get the first thing “that cheese” legalized and 12 million to get the last thing “that bird” dish legalized as well. Mind you the same guy spent over 100 million to lobby the state to keep cannabis illegal. He has now spent over 206 million dollars to try to make it illegal again. He is the same crazy guy that spent over 300 millions to lobby for the death penalty to be brought back while at the same time spent 500 million dollars to outlaw abortion at any stage. The guy is 1 of 20 billionaires that live in our state that literally own 2 of the 10 Mega Churches in the state. In the span of 30 years he spent billions of dollars to legalize 10 food products and outlaw 20 freedom of choices. One of the food products is literally a form of cannibalism and is only legal in a specific location in India and most of North Korea. The guy is currently spending 50 million dollars to bring back legal duels. Thankfully only thing he only got passed was a moonshine that makes people go blind. The moonshine killed 570 people in the United States alone last year.

    IDK, it's pretty easy to notice that a bird starts overeating in dark if you just catch one and keep it in dark. Then, soaking something in some armagnac doesn't sound that wild at all for French cuisine, and I can see how wanting to keep the bird as fresh as possible would lead to the conclusion that maybe let it just drown in there (and maybe gulp in some deliciousness on the way). And people have attempted eating small things without cutting them to pieces quite a bit, and that habit just stuck with this "delicacy".

It has bright red stalks with bright green leaves, and everything in it is poisonous.
