Brazil nuts' shells are also so high in aflatoxin that the EU tried banning them. For a few years there, you could only get them without their shells. That ban seems to have been repealed, though, judging by supermarket shelves.

Killer fact! Saddam Hussein's regime was the only ever to weaponise aflatoxin.
