Veggieitis
Luigi, suffering from the symptoms of Veggieitis
“Veggieitis: The strange malady of vegetables growing out of the human body. This usually happens when chopped up vegetable seeds are eaten with spaghetti sauce. This only occurs every 300 years in Brooklyn.”
Young MacDonald, Flower Power

Veggieitis is an extremely rare and bizarre disease that Luigi was once afflicted with. It and Roseitis are references to arthritis, a term referring to joint disorders.

In The Super Mario Bros. Super Show! episode "Flower Power", it is revealed that Veggieitis only occurs every three-hundred years in Brooklyn, and only when dehydrated vegetable seeds are eaten in spaghetti sauce; after some is afflicted with Veggieitis, they begin to spontaneously grow vegetables from their body, which, once removed, grow back faster. Luigi, who was suffering from Veggieitis throughout the episode, was eventually cured of it when he was advised by Young McDonald to eat a rose, which instantly cured Veggieitis and caused all the vegetables on Luigi's body to fall off. Unfortunately, upon eating this rose, Luigi gained another disease, one lasting a week, Roseitis, which caused roses to grow from his ears.
