Seaweed salad, Sushi Taku - Wicker Park, West Division Street, Chicago, IL, USA
2 years ago •reported by user-zcjx8118
After I got home from eating at the restaurant, I felt fine and went to bed. I woke up at 4am feeling nauseated and with stomach cramps. I vomited twice and both times only the seaweed salad was coming out, mind you I also ate their all
you can eat sushi so my stomach must've digested everything else but the seaweed salad. This was also my first time ever having seaweed salad. It was cold and delicious, but I don't know how it was suppose to be cooked.

I ordered a Shamrock Milkshake today 04/09 at 9:28AM. After I finished drinking it, the roof of my mouth started to feel like it was burning. I have ordered this milkshake at this McDonald's in the past and never encountered this problem before. Right now it is
2:11pm. The roof of my mouth is still painful, feels like it's burning and it hurts to swallow and eat other foods. I had also ordered a Sausage Egg McMuffin with my shake. I drank the shake first, but could not finish my McMuffin next because of how painful and uncomfortable my mouth feels.
