By Deborah Childress US Source: tampafp 12/21/2021

An Ocala woman allegedly poisoned by a “white” fish and chips dinner consumed at Whiskey Joe’s Bar and Grill in Tampa has led to a lawsuit filed with her husband against the well-known restaurant chain. Whiskey Joe’s parent company, Specialty Restaurants Corporation, and food distributors Sysco and Local Turtle Foods are also co-defendants in the case.

The alleged poisoning incident occurred on May 30, 2020.
 

Jennifer Pajevic, suffering from Ciguatera – which causes half of all food poisonings around the globe according to some studies – became severely ill within hours after consuming her dinner. According to the lawsuit, she suffered “significant gastrointestinal problems and peripheral neuropathy, followed by severe pain and injury” which allegedly continues to plague her today. All defendants are accused of distributing and selling fish “spoiled, unwholesome and unfit for human consumption.”
