I know you can get bad things from fresh water ponds/waterfalls if you submerge your head
Further info for folks in or visiting Hawaii- Basically do NOT eat locally grown vegetables, or certain shellfishes or crabs- do NOT handle slugs- keeps kids away from slugs- avoid rat crap- if playing outside- wash thoroughly when you get inside-
So basically you take a vacation in Haweaii and end up working the whole time trying to avoid rat lungworm disease

How so ???
.
Sushi would fit into that category.
.
No, brain-less parasites!
.
they claim fish don’t carry transmit it- but I still wouldn’t trust it there-
Note to self-when vacationing in Hawaii stick with SPAM
.
My business partner, 20 years ago nearly died from parasites eaten in sushi in a restaurant in Mammoth Lakes, Ca, of all places.

Not quite 2000 years. The Romans withdrew from Britain when? About 400 AD? Or was that when the baths stopped being cleaned (by slave/pressed labor, I’m sure)?
You ain’t going to believe the diseases being brought into our country to help create our “diversity.” Our old friends TB (only this time incurable.); Dengue fever; leprosy; parasites etc. etc. Have fun!
Give or take a century or four.................
There’s a story about Katherine Hepburn catching some eye thing from doing her own stunt, falling into an Italian fountain, or maybe a Venice canal?
Some more information on the infections.

Deliberately!
I think US “sushi” has to be from commercially frozen fish, or at least the salmon, to kill off known possible parasites.
I like to eat Sushi but I get the ones from the store that are rice, vegetables and that fake crab type stuff you can buy in the store. Like the Kemp brand.
I hope that doesn’t carry parasites
I will tell a seafood story to remember if anyone ever has a problem
Btw, have activated charcoal on hand because it helps.
I had no problems with mussels until one time I did. Apparently, alcohol and mussels can create a problem but I don’t remember if I had alcohol.
I now cannot eat mussels without getting violently sick. I guess something stays in your system creating an allergy or food issue. DECADES later. I recently tried. Didn’t eat activated charcoal just to see..wasn’t long before I projectile vomited and downed the charcoal.
These were not fresh mussels. They were frozen and had gone through process to make them safe. Don’t remember what it was called.
Now, whenever I eat shellfish of any kind I take activated charcoal just to be safe.
My favorite item on the menu where I work is Ahi tuna, seared very rare. I eat it quite often. Your comment along with others on this thread are changing my habit.
land crabs
Are those any relation to land sharks? Pizza Ma’am
