A worm of that size would take a very long time to grow. How does he know it came from that one instance of under cooked salmon. BTW - why aren’t millions of sushi and sashimi water suffering form the same parasite.

I make it a point to never eat salmon that was suffering from tapeworm.

I only say that because I figure the tastes like chicken joke has already been done.

Anthony Franz sued Shaw's Crab House in Chicago...

Chicago is definitely known for having lots of parasitic tapeworms that leach off of the hard work of others.
