Alright -- it was my first time eating Tofu.
I just did it up with a little seasoning and all.

Then, I had MAJOR diarrhea. Sound nasty? It was... ewww.
This is my first time eating it, and my mother is all freaked out now.

Is this normal?

PS Im 13, 5"2, and weigh 100lbs. If it matters ;)

Tofu is protein so you should get yourself checked for soy allergy. Sounds like either you have soy allergy or the tofu was out of date and gave you trouble, just like any spoiled food would have.

It's definitely not normal.

EDIT: Could have been the green onion if it was not washed properly and cooked.

I doubt that tofu will give you diarrhea however it may loosen stools somewhat. Are you certain it was the tofu, did you eat anything else. There is an outbreak of a stomach virus at this time which is regional. Rice, bananas, and hard boiled eggs will help to decrease diarrhea however if you have a virus, it needs to run it's course. Also you may have an allergy to soy, so I would take that into consideration as well. Hope you feel better!

Nothing too major to worry about, especially if this is your first time eating it. I am a vegetarian and now that I am pregnant often times I will crave meats that normally the thought of eating them would just make me sick. I ate beef for the first time in years a few weeks ago, damn that gave me the sh!ts too, but it was perfectly cooked. Nothing to fret about, my stomach, and apparently the rest of my system saw it as something foreign and something to expel in a quick fashion.

I eat tofu all the time and I never get tummy-ache or anything worst than that. What kind of seasonings did you use with your tofu?

Okay, if you don't prepare tofu correctly, it does give you indigestion.

But, here's a plus. Tofu is supposed to protect your stomach from fats and sugars, etc. When you get diarrhea, it's just the tofu getting rid of the excess junk.
