Raising Cane's Chicken Fingers, Walzem Road, San Antonio, TX, USA
4 days ago •reported by user-jnddd471
I went to Raising Caines Wednesday evening (April 24, 2024). I had a caniac combo with a coke. About 24 hours later I was hit like a ton of bricks and have been violently ill for 48 hours now. Temperatures over 102 F. Extremely painful headache and
abdominal pains. I am shaking so much it nearly convulsions. i cant hold food down and I have explosive diarrhea. And now I have bloody stools. Maybe if the employees were doing their job instead of making tiik tok videos, Then I wouldn't be violently ill. This is horrifying and absolutely unacceptable. I missed work and possibly lost my job for not showing up. I want justice and compensation for this blatantly incompetent behavior. This is a nightmare.
