foie gras is illegal now in Cali? For what reason?

I've never had it, though.

Oh! Fried alligator tail (YUM!), and I loooooove fried frog legs. Delicioso.. Damnit. Now I need to go to Toots and get some.

I wanna try Fugu (blowfish). I hear that if it's not cut right, you could die. Sushi chefs in Japan have to get specially certified to be able to do it, I've been told.
