Poison is in the fangs not the meat

Venom is transported through the fangs just so a bunch of children don't go eating a bunch of venom glands...

I mean… a fang can be eaten. Dogs eat all sorts of weird stuff.

If you eat a fang and it gouges into your skin and injects venom, did you eat it or did you get bitten?

It's not the fang that's poisonous but the glands and those absolutely could be even accidentally eaten. #debunked

So the conclusion is venomous is a subset of poisonous and the movie totally watchable.
