explosive diarrhea can happen, also things like Intussusception when your intestines folds onto each other, like sleeve of a sweather(it can happen if you alot of parasites or a tumor). or your intestines gets so blocked you will be vomiting your own waste.

Yikes that’s brutal. I got a gnarly worm from street meat in Beijing once and made me more cautious

I mean, this is probably my eventual fate. I have the mantra of “I’ll try anything twice”. It’s led me to some questionable, but so far outrageously fun, adventures in local cuisine.
