No ifs, buts, or maybes about it: I love food!I think of myself as somewhat of an epicurean and I delight in trying new and unusual things.I love the sensation that excellently prepared food delivers to the senses. It can really be a supreme and even sensual experience.And I'm not talking about a Boston cream donut!There is however one thing that I'm pretty sure I don't want from this pleasurable relationship.And that's for my food to deliberately want to kill me.I'm not talking about hunting it first in a savage jungle with hoards of spiders and snakes in the way to getting the beast onto my plate.I am talking about the simple act of the food sitting there in the plate and imagining it smirking at me while whispering: "Bite me!"This story is precisely about someone, a food critic no less, who decides that the potentially mind blowing experience of savouring food hell bent on destroying him from the inside out is worthwhile.If you have ever wondered what it might be like to sit in front of a plate of <A HREF="http://haacked.com/images/Fugu.jpg">fugu fish</a>, then read this excellent story and witness the turmoil of the critic as he goes through the whole experience from beginning to end!You might reconsider your culinary choices in life.
