A long time ago I read an article in the "Wall Street Journal" about the dangers of high-end restaurant food. At the time, very expensive restaurants liked to serve novel food, so they would import exotic ingredients from the far corners of the world. The article said that mixing unusual foods from widely separated places sometimes resulted in dishes that made people sick. The owners of one restaurant heard about a little fish that people in South America would catch and eat, so they ordered a load of them and made it their daily fish special. It turns out that the South Americans do catch and eat them, but not as a meal. They're a laxative. Maybe Faye got off lucky.
