In Osaka, the poisonous fugu (if the poison is ingested, it is lethal) is cooked in a hot pot dish known as tecchiri whose name is derived from a combination of the abbreviations for the nickname of fugu and hot pot. Tecchiri is a local dish beloved by citizens for its chewiness and subtle taste. *You can eat it without any worries since the people who cook tecchiri are chefs who have been specially licensed to handle fugu.
