There's a few ghouls that are addicted to human flesh. Most of them just see it as food vital to survival that they eat when needed but some are different.

Kaneki vomits at 15:20 after eating human food, skip until about 16:30 to be safe.
He also vomits blood earlier in the episode, but it’s not bad.

Episode 2
Kaneki vomits in the first 30 seconds of episode 2 after eating something in the alleyway.
Kaneki vomits a lot of blood during a fight at about 13 mins in.
^Same scene Nishio gags himself. (sound)

If you watch all of it, in season 4 (aka the really long season 3, at least on Hulu/where it really ends) ghouls don’t have to fear for their lives anymore, and they’re equal.

Not gonna explain it in too much detail in case I get it wrong, I haven’t watched it in about a year;;
