Lawsuit: Man got 9-foot tapeworm from restaurant

CHICAGO (AP) â?? 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.

The best part is when they say that he "passed" the tapeworm.

i hate those things, we had to watch a really long video about all these people that had them back in highschool once.

Most disturbing shit, one guy had to get his wife to pull it out of his ass while he cut it with scissors but he didn't cut the head off so it just sucked back in his intestines and grew back.

Kind of a ridiculous lawsuit. No way to prove he got it from the restaraunt.
