CHICAGO, Illinois (AP) — A man who contends he got a 9-foot tapeworm after eating undercooked fish has sued a Chicago restaurant.
In the lawsuit filed Monday, Anthony Franz said he ordered salmon salad for lunch from Shaw’s Crab House in 2006 and fell violently ill. He later passed the giant parasite, which a pathologist determined came from undercooked fish, such as salmon.
Franz’s lawsuit seeks $100,000 from Shaw’s and its parent company, Lettuce Entertain You Enterprises, contending the restaurant’s staff was negligent in serving him improperly cooked fish.
But Carrol Symank, vice president of food safety for Lettuce Entertain You, said the tapeworm didn’t come from Shaw’s.
“We have done a thorough investigation, and we’re confident the restaurant is not the source,” he said.
According to the Web site mayoclinic.com, tapeworms can measure up to 50 feet long.
[/INDENT]I don’t know what’s worse - that it looks like he’s going to lose his lawsuit or that he passed a 9 FOOT FUCKING TAPE WORM. Oh my jesus…my mother said it could happen.
SHE SAID IT COULD HAPPEN.
She also said I could get a tapeworm by not wearing slippers in the house and taught me to how to use a public bathroom toilet by standing on the lid.

“…You were right mom. YOU WERE RIGHT!!!”
/cries in a corner and puts her slippers on
OMG that REALLY makes me clench my buttcheeks. Hard.

Supposedly that's the bugger.
The tegument is the body surface of the adult tapeworm and due to this the tapeworms take the host nutrients and not attack the mucosa of the small intestine, or remove blood, hence infections are instead benevolent and most often don't show any signs of illness (Craig & Ito 2007:524). A carrier can notice the segments (proglottides) when using the bathroom for instance in the feces in a toilet bowl, around a latrine or frequently because the tapeworms are moving around constantly one may find it in the under-garments (Craig and Ito 2007: 524).
