Puffers were a type of food which wriggled around before being eaten suggesting it was possible a creature eaten live. The Hutt, Grelb ate a puffer in 44 BBY while en route to the planet Bandomeer. The following day he compared the Jedi Knight Qui-Gon Jinn to the puffer and the way it wriggled while the Human was trapped on a cliff face trying to avoid fire from the Hutt's Whiphid thugs on an unidentified planet.
Behind the scenes
Puffers were first mentioned in Jedi Apprentice: The Rising Force by author Dave Wolverton. The meal has not been referenced in any other material to date.
