A Japanese 10-year-old has become the youngest person authorized to prepare “fugu” pufferfish — a delicacy that can kill if its poisonous parts are not properly removed.
Fifth grader Karin Tabira passed a test this summer that means she is now certified to slice and gut the fish for consumption.
She recently used her new skills to serve a platter of paper-thin slices of fugu sashimi to the governor of southern Kumamoto region where she lives.
Most adults are functionally retarded and can barely drive a car. These kids are the exception. Most humans are incredibly stupid.
No the kid is a statistic waiting to happen. There is absolutely no reason a 10 year old needs to do this other than bragging rights.
the kids are also incredibly stupid. I saw about 15 of them throwing open sizzers 20-30 feet up a brick wall so they could catch it with their bare hands not even a week ago
