I just bought 3 of these bad boys from a guy at an asian market in Branson. They set me back a pretty penny ($60 each) but the man assured me they are a delicacy in Japan.
Does anyone know what kind of fish these are?
I couldn't really understand him and the bag he put them in was in Chinese so I threw it out.

I'm going to make some really good fish and chips tonight. Any ideas for what I should do with the other 2?

Well, puffer is one of those rare things that are a fish and poisonous to eat. Most people don't see it as a puffer because it doesn't look like a classic porcupinefish people don't think it is a puffer. Weird sea food and wild fungi are the things you need to identify correctly with a scientific name before eating.

The incinerator is the best way to dispose of them, unless you know of some Japanese people who know how to fix it.

OP here, I just got back from putting them in the incinerator. I didn't think they were pufferfish at all when I got them, but I forgot that pufferfish only blow up like your pic when they are threatened. 0

Some people may think that I lost $180 today, but the truth is that I paid $180 for a valuable lesson. I would've no doubt died tonight had you not said that they were poisonous and I wish there was some way I could repay you but you're going to have to accept my sincerest gratitude. I just evaded death and I feel like I have a whole new lease on life. Walking back up I realized that this is the only life I have and I need to live it to the fullest.
