Very interesting that that is the origin though.... thanks
Apparently, in Haitian beliefs a zombie can be solved by feeding it salt, so always keep a salt shaker in your pocket people:
The zombie belief has its roots in traditions brought to Haiti by enslaved Africans, and their subsequent experiences in the New World. It was thought that the Vodou deity Baron Samedi would gather them from their grave to bring them to a heavenly afterlife in Africa ("Guinea"), unless they had offended him in some way, in which case they would be forever a slave after death, as a zombie. A zombie could also be saved by feeding them salt. A number of scholars have pointed out the significance of the zombie figure as a metaphor for the history of slavery in Haiti.[9]

In future I'll stay away from puffer fish.
America is once again leading the world, this time in teaching us how to deal with zombies. The answer, it seems, is to get blind drunk and then beat zombies to death with your guitar and other handy objects. Seriously...

Excuse me while I go and eat some salt.
Cheers, Billy.
Keeping it simple is complicated.
