The only thing I noticed was the bowl was very soupy,... See More like they did it drain the pinto beans. It tasted fine to me so I ate it.

You want to avoid this place at all costs. The place is dirty, and the employees look... Years ago, I've seen them scrape containers of food into a fresh container (old container that looked like it was sitting there and not under a controlled temperature.) It's around the corner from me but I refuse to patronize the restaurant. Their prices aren't cheap. Welcome to what has become of America.

I bought frozen chicken breasts from Trader Joe’s, don’t remember when. Cooked them last nite. Shortly after dinner, I was getting stomach pains. Then then vomiting started. After about 1/2 hr. The vomiting resumed, along with diarrhea. I lied down a bit, then had to rush to... See More the restroom again having the vomiting again w/diarrhea. Finally in the morning it seemed that it all passed and I did feel better. I’ve always trusted Trader Joe’s, but I feel apprehensive about buying chicken at TJs, or anywhere for that matter. I know this can happen anywhere, but it’s just scary when chicken can go bad and it’s put in our stores to feed our families. I am a widow, so it was just me that got sick. Story is up above I just want to express the importance of chicken is frozen then possibly thaw out in delivery then re-frozen and put in the stores to sell. 100% care for the chicken is most important. | Symptoms: Diarrhea, Vomiting, Stomach Pain See Less

Health authorities are investigating ten cases clinically suggestive of food botulism linked to the consumption of artisanal canned sardines in the Tchin Tchin Wine Bar in Bordeaux, France. Unfortunately, 1 person has died. The problem goes beyond just France and affects diners in Spain and Germany who... See More also ate at the same establishment.

In detail, the patients exhibited symptoms consistent with food botulism. The initial case, a woman in her thirties, experienced non-specific signs when she first arrived at the Bordeaux University Hospital. However, she later suffered respiratory paralysis at home without a chance to return to the hospital. Cases have been identified not only in France but also in Spain and Germany. It is believed these cases also trace back to the same Bordeaux source of contamination.

The matter came to light after substantial administrative action against Tchin Tchin Wine Bar. All of the restaurant's canned goods have been seized, revealing issues with control in the canned manufacturing process. An analysis of all seized goods is expected by the upcoming Friday. To date, the food symptoms blame the sardines, which were served as is, like tapas.

"Despite the prompt response, it is estimated that around ten additional cases are possible due to the quantity of potentially contaminated product served by the restaurant," stated Thierry Touzet, deputy director of the departmental population protection directorate. Information has been distributed to health professionals by the Ministry of Health to quickly identify new cases. Victims of botulism potentially face long-term effects, especially if they suffer infectious complications. However, a botulinum antitoxin is available that can help shorten hospitalization time.

In case you experienced Botulism symptoms such as diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, and stomach pain, report it now. It can help to detect & resolve outbreaks early and prevent others from being harmed, and it enables better surveillance. If symptoms persist, seek medical care.
