Don’t eat sushi from a gas station or a bar that primarily serves beer and burgers. Those are my rules.

Unfortunately this was a reputable establishment, but yes, I agree with you.

So one thing I learned is that some sushi places will substitute things like white tuna with a fish that will give you awful diarrhea called Escolar. I've steered clear of white fish based sushi ever since.

Escolar is incredibly tasty and you have to eat a fairly large portion of it to experience ill effects. Most restaurants proudly label it as exactly what it is, and people like me happily order it. Don't eat a steak-size portion and you'll be fine.

The food poisoning illness was awful, but the explosive diarrhea, and projectile vomiting of wasabi out of my nose… that was real bad.

Escolar is fine for you, just dont go eating an entire plate of it. Its often included in my favorite combo meal and is just 4 pieces, you wont have any issues with that.
Its pretty obvious when its escolar once your use to what it looks like.
