What is the world’s deadliest food?


Food is vital to life, but sometimes what we eat can be deadly. We generally try to avoid what we know to be toxic or avoid common allergens, like peanuts, if we are allergic to them.

But what is the deadliest food that people eat routinely? The answer depends on how we define it. The deadliest food may be the one that kills the most people — in which case foods that trigger allergies or chronic conditions could top the list. Alternatively, the deadliest food may be ones that are poisonous and that kill the most people, or one that is lethal at even tiny doses. If you only include potentially poisonous foods, candidates for the “deadliest food” include organisms from the plant, animal and fungus kingdoms.
