Nasty, good thing I don't eat raw fish anymore. When it comes to sushi restaurants I eat only cooked items.

A Fresno, Calif., man pulled a 5-and-a-half-foot long tapeworm from his body. His daily sushi habit may be the culprit.

He likely left the head behind so it will regrow. Hopefully he received appropriate anti-parasitic meds.

I saw this on Facebook. Not only do I not understand why would you would eat raw salmon, but I also don’t understand how you could eat everday. It said salmon was his favorite, but I couldn’t eat my favorite food everyday.

Raw salmon sushi is my favorite- specifically nigiri. I could eat it every day but I don’t because it’s not cheap.

Also, I hate this story since now I have to worry that this might happen to me someday.

Meh. I'm not concerned in the least. Millions of people eat sushi, and stories like this are rare. Plenty of other thngs to be concerned about that are much more likely to affect me. I'll continue to enjoy sushi.

That was my initial thought too, but my butt has been feeling weird ever since I read this story a few days ago...

So you're saying that you'd rather not be informed about the dangers of your self-destructive behavior?
