Guy must have a really interesting gut microbiome. I'm thinking maybe apocalyptic.

Hey Freddie,
Wasn't sure where to post this question, but this looks like as good a place as any.
What's your opinion on sweet potatoes?
Are they a no-no or are they pretty healthy? In moderation of course.
I was never a fan really, but actually (by accident) I've found they're actually pretty tasty. And filling.

I think sweet potatoes are a good food choice. And, as you say, tasty.

Australian neurosurgeon finds parasitic worm in woman’s brain while investigating 'mystery illness'

Scientists later learned the woman lives near a carpet python habitat, and, though she had no direct contact with the snakes, scientists hypothesize that she consumed the worms’ eggs from native vegetation called warragal greens that she forages for to cook or from her contaminated hands.

This time, I'd blame the plant with worm eggs that almost turned the patient into a vegetable.
