It IS highly poisonous. Fugu has glands that if punctured will release poison powerful enough to kill 10 men
The chef must avoid these glands, but the rest is comestible.
Fugu chefs must place the remains into a locked armored box to be returned to Japanese health authorities. Fugu poison is a very potent weapon.
