Class act Steve. How about trying some blowfish next? That
ought to be a trip. I read that if the chef gets it right, it's real
good. But if he gets it wrong you really don't need to worry
as long as your affairs are in order.

I heard blowfish can be constipating.

Unlike escolar, puffers are only eaten for the thrill factor rather

Thanks. I'll try delaying the tips for a while and see if that helps.

Great article!

"This is the same fish that has been banned in Japan since 1977
because the Japanese Government believes it is toxic. In this country,
enough people complained about escolar's purgative effect for the Food
and Drug Administration to issue an import bulletin in the early
1990's that recommended not selling the fish, which is found in the
Gulf of Mexico, the South Pacific and tropical waters around the
world. Early last year, the alert was canceled because the agency,
unlike the Japanese Government, decided escolar was not toxic.

The fish had virtually disappeared from markets and menus, but now
it's back. And so are the complaints."

It sounds like a wonderful food to serve as a "fish dinner"
political fundraiser.

Our nation should be more like Illinois
and limit all politicians to just TWO terms:
One in office and the second in prison.

They're so full of it that that would create an enviromental disaster.

When Xenical came out, years ago, I was on a diet and decided to
give it a try. The stuff is expensive. At first, I started quite
conservatively with what I ate, but after experiencing no issues,
I thought it'd be safe to 'cut back' the calories of a full rack
of ribs. I'd finished the diet, but didn't want to regain the
weight I'd lost because of eating a good-sized meal.

I had the full rack of KC-style ribs, along with small servings of
fixings, such as potato salad (made with Mayo) and beans. I took
a Xenical capsule to cut back on the fat calories. It was the
night of a trip when we were staying over in a hotel. About
3:00a, I awoke to the sensation that I needed to get to fast.

Trust me when I say that the symptoms of Xenical, coupled with a
good, fatty, dinner are exactly the same as those attributed to
eating about a pound portion of Escolar.

As a FWIW, when I took Xenical, I don't know if it was the diet,
the reduction in absorbed fats or both, but my LDL plummeted, my
HDL was up and the ratio naturally improved. I just had to be
very, very careful to not overdo the fats in what I ate, since I'd
pay the price the following day. Even then, there's a learning
curve and once you learn to not cough, laugh, sneeze or pass gas,
even that embarrassing issue is minimized. Xenical is by
prescription only, but a half-strength version is OTC and sold as
ALLI.

Orwell called it "Thinkspeak" in his
classic novel, "1984." Today, the same
control of speech and thought is called
being Politically Correct.

It's really worth a shot. They make both dry and "amabile", which is sweeter
and has only 7, 8 or 9 % abv, while the dry version usually is between 10.5%
and 11.5% abv.
Dry and sparkling, perfect with juicy fatty dishes, or fattyish roasts with
a good dose of gravy, but also wonderful with many first courses of the area
as tortelli and sausage-sauce egg-noodle pasta, as "gramigna alla
salsiccia".
