Faced with an increasing number of patrons who eat until they throw up, a Spanish all-you-can-eat restaurant has introduced a 'vomit fee'.

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 incidents of vomiting related to overeating in recent months and decided to do something about it.

“If a client 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 Spanish 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,” Sushi Toro management stated “ and therefore we ask for collaboration as this is also affecting other clients eating in the restaurant”.

It’s unclear how much greedy patrons have to pay of they end up throwing up at Sushi Toro, but its buffet costs between €16.90 ($20) and €23.90 ($28), depending on the day of the week and the time of day.
