Nausea, Diarrhea, Vomiting

1 year ago

I got horrendously sick after eating Amy’s canned lentils soup (low sodium). That’s the only thing I ate. Im still in bed sick the following day with no appetite and a sour tummy.
I won’t be eating that anymore. I’m tossing the rest of the cans of soup. | Symptoms: Nausea, Diarrhea, Vomiting See Less

Nausea, Diarrhea, Vomiting, Cramps, Bloating

1 year ago

I bought regular cheerios from here. It was the first thing I ate yesterday and got extremely bad stomach cramps, bloating, nausea like I’m going to vomit and then diarrhea. I thought I was sick with the flu or something. Had them again today and had the... See More exact same thing happened. It happens about 30 min after eating them and then progressively gets worse. I’ve been eating cheerios my whole life with no issues. This is very obviously from eating them. Still feeling terrible. I googled it and found out everyone else is getting sick from them too. Like mass cheerios food poisoning. Something is going on. Definitely throwing them in the garbage and giving up cereal for a while. | Symptoms: Nausea, Diarrhea, Vomiting, Cramps, Bloating See Less

Nausea, Diarrhea, Vomiting, Acid reflux

1 year ago

My first time buying steak from here was last week. I bought a tray of boneless ribeyes on Friday night and cooked it the following day on Saturday afternoon. I don't eat my steak rare or even medium-rare, so I cooked it to my preferred doneness of... See More medium, or maybe just slightly past, it was still tender with a bit of pink in the middle, but not red.

Anyway, I thought I cooked it well enough and I have certainly eaten steak like this before without issue(though not their steak, it was my first time buying from them), but after about 3 or 4 hours I started to feel quite nauseous and ended up vomiting. I did feel a bit better after throwing up, but I still had a sour stomach and acid reflux for most of the evening/night, and the following day I had diarrhea.

I believe I cooked it well enough and couldn't tell anything was wrong when I ate it, but I have heard/read that Costco injects their meat with something(not sure what it is and why, maybe it's for taste, appearance, or preservation), but if it's true, I wonder if that may have caused my negative reaction.

I would have thought this was just an aberration, but on Tuesday, two days after initially cooking the steak, I ate some leftover scraps(which were properly refrigerated and reheated), particularly the ends that were definitely cooked through, and I felt sick again. Fortunately, I did not throw up again, but I felt terrible for a few hours, and now I am seriously debating whether to eat the other two steaks that came in the tray which I immediately froze on Saturday after cooking the one steak. | Symptoms: Nausea, Diarrhea, Vomiting, Acid reflux

Hi, I ate Burger King yesterday with my friend. He was fine before that, and so was I.
A few hours later, he started to have a stomachache and after that he vomited. He also had diarrhea because of what he ate and I also had a... See More really bad stomach ache.
Really what do you put in food? Because every time I eat Burger King, my stomach hurts a lot and I limit the nausea. I don't understand how it is possible to make such bad food sorry for my words, but it's not too normal for me to have a stomachache or to feel nauseous. To tell the truth, I didn't act on how I felt, because I simply told myself that it was my taste, but in the end it was not only me who saw that my friend threw up. I want a refund or I am thinking of filing a complaint. Because sorry but it's really not normal. I am disgusted, in addition I saw McDonald's I was telling myself for once I am eating Burger King and finally I am very disappointed with the restaurant as usual.
Sincerely. | Symptoms: Vomiting, Diarrhea, Nausea, Stomach Pain

My niece, daughter, and I all had severe food poisoning from this location for at least 48 hours from eating at Piada. Around 7pm three days prior we decided to eat at Piada. I ordered the Diavolo sauce while daughter and niece got the marinara red sauce.... See More Noticed both were near the last of the containers and whatever wasn’t scooped onto the noodles, the leftovers were poured and mixed into the new sauce. When confronting the manager of the illness they mentioned that it is standard procedure to pour the old leftover sauce into the new sauce to help not waste food. Standard procedures should also include not violating health codes when heating food longer than 4 hours by pouring previously heated food into newly heated food in which would contaminate the new heated batch. The manager advised we go to the hospital to confirm the food poisoning we received a couple of hours after consuming their food which included uncontrollable vomiting, diarrhea, fever, cold sweats, and inability to move for two complete days while not being able to retain fluids. On day three was able to gain enough strength to shower and drink fluids but still shakey and unable to eat. | Symptoms: Nausea, Diarrhea, Vomiting, Fever, Sweating See Less
