Tradition and Culture
Fugu has been a part of Japanese cuisine for centuries. It’s considered a delicacy, especially in winter, and eating it is seen as a cultural experience.

Thrill Factor
For some diners, eating fugu comes with a sense of danger—a test of courage. The thrill of tasting something so deadly is part of the allure.
