Mike Rowe's mother is a national treasure! I've been a fan of hers since the Old Blue story.

Why do I imagine the feeling of pooping a tapeworm out as satisfying?

Salmon Sushi?

I saw that on facebook earlier. His parents are hilarious. Mike's such a good dude with all he's done and is doing for people.
anvilon
That's odd. I never knew I shared a mother with Mike Rowe.
ChupaChena
Mike Rowe is a silver fox
fairybug
Fuck yes he is.
MrNightfish
If we never eat food that someone got sick from, we're all going to starve. Maybe invest more than a dollar in your sushi and it'll be fine
MinorityOpinion
Or maybe cook your fish.

My mom sent me an article about this yesterday lmao

This is good stuff
concaveUsurper
...I am literally eating sushi as I read this. Cali is on the other side of the country tho so fuck it.
GodEmperorOfImgur
Most places use fish that has been frozen before consumption, no risk of parasites then.

I hope Wendy’s never serves sushi then.

Does everyone named Rowe have a Mom like this? Speaking as a Rowe with a Mom like this.

That honestly sounds like a text from my mom. I'm going to Costa Rica at the end of the year and she was like, "At least you don't have 1/2
NoFoxLeft
worry abput being kidnapped for sex trafficking." I'm a 28 year old woman.... thanks mom. 2/2

Tell your mom there are people with fetishes so you're still not safe.

Fake! No one ever has 100% phone battery while the charger is unplugged!
KingMe343
You can tell this is shopped because the battery is full.

That poor guy in California.

I'm more worried about his plumber.
PipeandSlippers
Its ok

Five foot for a tapeworm is pretty small actually, the fuckers can get up to 55 feet long.
aufkurs
Thank you
fuzzywhale
The caveat of course is that you rarely pass the WHOLE 5 FOOT FUCKER from your asshole, mainly pieces of it.

Tapeworms are terrifying.
chicharrone
Pics or it didnt happen
OliverClothesoff70
Tapeworms are the hitchhikers of life.
Flipvan
Anybody else ever see the episode of House where he pulled a giant tapeworm out of the girl abdomen?
PhillyPhanatic11
I've tried to forget about that.
metzershmit
Do they hurt?
RubesCubes
They latch onto your intestinal walls. Definitely wouldn’t be very comfy.
DrKriegersClone
And some people ingest them deliberately to lose weight.
TheBestRussian
I hear tide pods are a great way to lose weight quickly and efficiently!
Raileks
On their own yeah, but compared to all the other horrific parasites out there, they don't seem that bad.
paigezero
Snopes tweeted about this earlier but I didn't click and assumed they were debunking it but nope, confirmed :s - (link in reply)

Aiight, listen up. Different parasites have different reservoirs, vectors, and transmissions. Diphyllobothrium Latum, the Fish Tapeworm, /1
ButTheyForgotAboutRae
Comes from eating contaminated fresh water raw fish, like salmon, which is what this man probably contracted. Others can come from /2
ButTheyForgotAboutRae
Contaminated soil, bites from flies/ticks/mosquitos, warm water thru the nasal cavity, undercooked beef/pork/crab, etc. There are about /3
ButTheyForgotAboutRae
40 different parasites that the medical field usually deals with in humans. They're not all the same, and all have diff signs/symptoms. /4

Source: I'm in medical school, currently studying parasites in microbiology. Yayyyy. 5/5.

I've never heard of a worm coming from sushi. Especially in America. Ever.
JayEnfield
Sashimi isn't cooked, but it is flash-frozen to kill off parasites. Only a real asshole would skip this step or do it improperly.
3dartwork
Which, again, makes me feel that I've never heard of worms in sushi. Eaten it for 25 years all over the US, never heard/got them
JayEnfield
All of the clickbait articles on this are just pole-vaulting right to conclusions.
