In Japanese, fugu is the name for the lethally poisonous blowfish. Japanese law requires that it be prepared by professional chefs who have been specially trained and licensed. Law forbids the emperor and the imperial family to eat fugu. Most fugu is eaten between January and March, when it is believed to be least poisonous.
