Knowing what I've gone through to get my gut to a "happy place" where I can live a relatively normal life within certain parameters, I'm simply not going to risk getting Anisakiasis, an illness caused by ingesting roundworms from improperly prepared sushi. I don't need anymore diarrhea, cramps, or vomiting than what I can have on any given day from and IBD flare.
