Diarrhea, Vomiting

2 years ago

My daughter, boyfriend and I had reservations for 7pm there last night. They were "short staffed" and had a huge crowd. Around 7:30pm, we finally got to sit down. My daughter ordered the Queensland chicken pasta without the shrimp, my boyfriend ordered a steak and mashed potatoes,... See More and I ordered the grilled chicken caesar salad...we never change our order when we eat here, except this time I opted for the salad with chicken. For an appetizer, my daughter and I had a "Bloomin Onion" and a slice of the bread loaf they offer. I felt like the onion wasnt cooked enough when it arrived to the table and I wasn't going to eat it, but I had not eaten anything all day and said f it, I'll just eat it. I ate less than a quarter of it probably and after eating 1 or 2 pieces that tasted raw I just stopped eating it. My boyfriend got a side Caesar salad and ended up telling me 'you're not gonna like it' as he picked through it with a look of disgust on his face. I prayed...Upon getting my food something seemed off with the chicken but i couldn't quite tell because it was masked by the Caesar dressing. I ate less than half the salad. I'm glad I didn't eat more. I'm unsure what got me sick, but I woke up at around 4:30-5am today, December 30, 2021 and felt like I was going to throw up and sure enough I did. The only thing i could taste was the Bloomin Onion and sauce. I threw that up and some of the chicken from my salad. Then when I thought I felt good enough to maybe lay down and rest it off, i ended up having to go to the bathroom and I had a mild episode of diarrhea. I ended up going to sleep eventually just to wake up at 8:30am with More diarrhea. I normally always eat at the mount pleasant location but this time my boyfriend decided we'd go to this for food... But let me tell you, that I will NEVER eat there again after this! I don't normally puke up food and it's been a long time (well over 2 years) since fpod has made me throw up like this. Hopefully my daughter doesn't wake up in a few and get sick also (since we both ate the onion and the chicken in her pasta is the very same as my salads grilled chicken). I'm going to pray she does not though because I don't wish this awfulness on anybody. | Symptoms: Diarrhea, Vomiting See Less
