Here's an honorable mention - Ackee. The national fruit of Jamaica, it can be poisonous if it's not allowed to ripen and open naturally on the tree. After that, it must be picked, de-seeded, cleaned, and then boiled, then you throw that water away, all before cooking the ackee with salted codfish or your preferred protein.

Filipinos can keep cooked rice in the refrigerator for 2 - 4 days. Leftover rice is good for fried rice but only make sure the lid of the container does not have too much moisture.
And I had already tasted fresh oysters when I was 26 after relatives offered some to us

Even if it’s prepared properly, I don’t see myself consuming cassava or fugu blowfish.

BS on Rice

As long as it’s refrigerated you could keep it for at least 5 days. Never been sick.

I call BS on rice. My family and I eat it all the time and rarely get sick from it, particularly when we store it for more than one day.

If you think about it, pretty much all foods can be included in this topic. Other foods missed include most fruits and vegetables, dairy products, beef, pork, eggs, and grains such as bread.

I've learned a technique on cooking rice. Before cooking it in a rice pot, put a cap full of vinegar into the pot and after its done, the rice will stay preserved longer before it starts breaking down.

I remember learning about fugu from that Simpsons episode where Homer had a close shave with death

[ARIXANDRE]

Im gonna die. These temperatures are in Fahrenheit.

[andremassabki]

2:39 I can only think of the "rigor mortis stew" case on Judge Judy 🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️

Fugu is safer to eat these days because the farmed variety is non toxic and often served these days as well. So you don’t have to try the original toxic version if you don’t want to now.

dam I eat room temp rice a day later nd I never got sick

[GalloM]

We mexicans keep the rice for a whole week 😂

[MyRobenson]

Wait what .. I keep my rice in the fridge for more than 2 days

Is risking your life for this stuff actually worth it? I read a story about a man that had to be rushed to the hospital because he was struggling to breathe. When they went into his throat with the camera, they could see a live octopus that suctioned it's tentacles inside his throat and was moving around. He had to have surgery to get it out 😰 That freaks me out so much

[jasonmercer]

I'm sticking to chicken fingers and grilled cheese!😁

[KRDP]

hey watchmojo question. could yall make a vid about karens who ruined thanksgiving??? or who ruined black friday???

[dreamguardian]

If I ever plan on eating clams or oysters, I'm going to always have mine steamed and not raw.

[entransify]

even if prepared properly, eating fugu is still like playing Russian roulette, except that the death if it happens isn't exactly pleasant.
