Doctors demand to stop eating a dish that is capable of causing severe body poisoning and death, but the tribute to the traditions of the Egyptians is so far more developed than common sense.
Poisonous bullfrog
Asian and African restaurateurs often "spoil" their guests with large representatives of amphibian bullfrogs.
