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.
Millennial here.
I read zoomers are less likely to use peer pressure to get others to drink. It’s also the reason why so many non-alcoholic beers are out in the market now. Really cool.
Yeah, I never really felt pressured to drink by people my age. Occasionally I’ll be hanging out with older people and they’ll act like I’m lame for turning it down. That’s okay, before they know it it’ll all be prune juice, anyway.
