    Ackee Poisoning

    Hi, all. I was just wondering if anyone on here has ever gotten sick from eating ackee, and if it is something that I really need to be concerned with. I was up last night looking up how to pronounce ackee, and I noticed that it is poisonous when picked before it is ripe. Still looking around this morning, and saw that about a year ago there was an outbreak of ackee poisoning, including 30-something deaths, in Jamaica. Just wanting to know others opinions on eating this fruit while in Jamaica.
