New Zealand has shell fish to toxic to eat from time to time. The effect is that the tounge and lips go tingly then numb if a little is eaten. If more is eaten more of the ailimentary tract is affected. Can cause death if enough is eaten. We generaly associate this with polution but I'm not sure that precise causes are known yet. Cheers.
