ones who ate the pork. This was the sickest I’ve ever been. We all were nauseous, vomiting, diarrhea, fevers, body aches, and headache's for DAYS. I called today to inform them about it and I asked to speak to a manager. A lady got on the phone and I said that I got a Boston butt Saturday night, and she said oh god, hold on a minute, and put me on hold. When she got back on the phone she asked if she could take a message. I said no, I need to speak to a manager, is that not you? She said no. I told her about all of us getting extremely ill and she said “there were 7 of you”? I said yes, so I need to speak to the manager. She took my number but I have yet to receive a call back. Her reaction was odd and led me to believe that there were others who also got food poisoning from them Saturday  | Symptoms: Nausea, Diarrhea, Vomiting, Fever, Headache, Body Ache
