I guess what bugs me about this is that to me, if you're ordering "white tuna", escolar is the thing you want, not albacore. Albacore belongs in a can. It's not "counterfeit" so much as oddly-named.

I don't think its just escolar that does this. I'm a huge fan of salmon and if I eat too much this also happens.

I don’t think i’ve ever gotten this from salmon and I’ve eaten equivalent amounts of raw salmon before. However extremely greasy foods do cause a reaction down under for me so it could have been salmon belly or fatty salmon that you had too much of.
