webfact Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 That's not a frog in my throat - it's much worse! Thai caption: Something scary stuck in his throat! A Thai man woke from his nighttime slumbers and thought he must have a frog in his throat. The reality was much worse. "Chayanon A" started coughing violently and thought something was stuck down there. He reckoned it must be a string of spaghetti or perhaps some noodles that had got wedged in. No! He soon had the offending item extricated - a 6 inch tapeworm. Chayanon went to hospital armed with his discovery and naturally reported his experience on Facebook causing much comment. His comments should be a warning he said - he would be avoiding raw and uncooked foods from now on.

HuskerDo Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 "he would be avoiding raw and uncooked foods from now on.".... why people eat uncooked food is beyond me. Just saw a story on TV the other day where a guy who had eaten uncooked/undercooked pork died from tiny worms that overtook his brain and other internal organs. The same type of thing can happen from raw fish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lazyness. Some people have to taste buds and consider eating a chore. Most are Brits though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I resent that uncalled for slur on my nationhood. How very dare you denigrate those whose palates appreciate the nuance of Marmite and a dollop of HP.

Freeze the fish first which kills any parasites ???? The freezer at ones home isn't good enough for that, Parasites become a concern when consumers eat raw or lightly preserved fish such as sashimi, sushi, ceviche, and gravlax. When preparing these products, use commercially frozen fish. Alternatively, freeze the fish to an internal temperature of -4°F for at least 7 days to kill any parasites that may be present.

Why won't your home freezer do that ?? That's minus 20 Celcius !! Our ice cream freezer sits at -28 ???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand your comment about 'lazyness', but I can't agree with your remark that 'most are Brits'. Have you ever been to Britain? If so you might have noticed the absence of litter compared to Thailand? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least you know the correct title is the UK and not GB. I am almost inclined to overlook your instinctive dislike of all things British. Almost.
