‘You can eat all’ restaurant introduces vomit fee to prevent greedy customers from overeating

FACED with an increasing number of patrons who eat until they throw up, a you-can-eat-all restaurant in Spain has introduced a ‘vomit fee,’ the country’s media reported.

Sushi Toro, a restaurant in Gelves, Spain’s Sevilla region, has been getting a lot of attention because of its decision to charge people extra if they end up vomiting on the premises due to overeating. 

Apparently, the eatery had seen many incidences of vomiting related to overeating in recent months and decided to do something about it.

“If a customer throws up as a result of having eaten too much, the restaurant reserves the right to charge them an extra fee to cover damages,” a sign posted by Sushi Toro reads.

The restaurant explained that the growing number of vomiting incidents affects other diners, service, management and hygiene in the establishment, so they basically had no other choice but to implement the vomiting fee to discourage overeating.

“We work hard to get orders out on time and maintain good hygiene and therefore we ask for collaboration as this is also affecting other clients eating in the restaurant,” Sushi Toro management stated. 

It’s unclear how much greedy patrons have to pay if they end up throwing up at Sushi Toro, but its buffet costs between $20 and $28, depending on the day of the week and the time of day.
