I bought the sausage at Walmart on 5/19/2023
Cooked for lunch about 1:30 on 5/20/23
At about 4:30 a.m. I woke up with horrible diarrhea, dizzy, pounding headache and ache over my entire body especially lower back. Also running a low grade fever for the entire day … See More
on Monday in bed …and part of into Tuesday morning early… Tuesday diarrhea not as violent, headache gone but body aches and low grade fever… Wednesday I feel weak and stomach feels like it has a knot in the middle. And sharper pain now and again. I was very very sick… and still weak.
I will call my doctor tomorrow to se if she thinks I may need antibiotic. I have Graves’ auto immune disease. I don’t know if I have defenses to fight this out of my system on my own.
I called Walmart … they told me that they could give me my money back and a $25 gift certificate.They took a report over phone
But said that Hillshire Farms is an individual vendor … and they inspect the expiration dates and keep up with recalls not Walmart.
My doctor bill and medicine will not be covered with a $25 gift certificate.

I took photos of the pkg that I bought… then went back to Walmart and took phots of expiation dates of the same Smoked Sausage … some of the dates were just like mind… smudged off… some dates were clearly stamped… some not stamped at all.

I was a customer of Walmart… and a big customer for Hillshire Farms Smoked sausage. I’m just Thankful that we had not bought for my Grandson’s Graduation day
On Saturday 27 May. We Would be feeding a crowd we would have felt awful making our family and friends sick too.
Sadly I will be scared to buy again… with no one taking responsibility on what they are putting in stores. And sad thing is … food is so very expensive… and then makes us sick.  | Symptoms: Nausea, Diarrhea, Fever, Headache, Body Ache, Weakness, Stomach Pain, Dizziness

Drinking Diet Coke, Woke up in the middle of the night and drank my Diet Coke cause I was thirsty and not even 5 minutes later was I on the toilet with diarrhea. After 20 minutes I started to feel sick. 10 more minutes had passed I … See More
felt I could drink a little water and then I threw everything up. I sipped on my water as I know chugging it will make a person throw up if they’re not feeling good. What’s weird is the date still says it’s good.  | Symptoms: Nausea, Diarrhea, Vomiting

I’ve eaten lucky charms for years. Recently I noticed that I was having stomach pains, diarrhea, nausea, and bloating up to 2 days after eating a bowl. I assumed that I had just reached the age where I could no longer eat them, but now after hearing … See More
of these other reports, I am thinking it’s an issue with the product and not me. Others in my family have eaten from the same box with no problem. I still have a box with product in it.  | Symptoms: Nausea, Diarrhea, Bloating, Stomach Pain

I bought some sliced butterball turkey from their meat butcher on January 26 for 15$. On Feb 12 I ate 2 of these slices, thickness 1 1/2 in a sandwich (bread, pickle, tomato, and some lettuce along with some other food (egg & cheese again from there), … See More
after about 5 hours later I got sick.

I did not count the number of times I pooped. I also did not sleep very well that night, and had to get up and pace around my apartment from the discomfort I felt. At about 3AM the discomfort reached its peak and very slowly subsided. At about 7AM I was feeling much better.

I could not bring myself to through out all the food (the turkey + the egg and cheese alone was over 35$) that I had eaten from.

After only having a liquid diet for 24 hours, On Feb 13, I again had the same turkey sandwich but without the tomato. This time I also had a brownie that was given to me by a neighbor. This time I got sick after only about 3 hours. Now I am sure it was the turkey. This time it was a little worse, and after much pooping, I called the health nurse at the at the VA about 1AM Feb 14. She advised me to drink plenty of liquids and wait until morning to see how I felt.

I again had a very agenizing night again pacing around my apartment because I could not bring myself to do anything else. At about 2AM I vomited 4 times in quick succession. I was extremely glad to get that crap out of my stomach but didn't feel all that better after doing so as I had expected it to.
The extreme discomfort again slowly went down and about 8 AM I was feeling ok.

On Feb 17 I went to the store to return the meat but forgot to bring it. I found out that they had been closed for 3 days because of having no power. I needed to buy some more food so went to the frozen food section.

I found most of the shelves very low on frozen food. I talked to one of the workers about that, that was restacking the frozen food, and she said since they had lost power for 3 days they had to throw out all the frozen and refrigerated food. I chatted with her and another customer for a little while. I again asked her if she was sure all the frozen and refrigerated food was thrown out and she said she was.

I bought 3 Michelina's Chicken Fried Rice dinners and 1 Marie Callender's Chicken Pot Pie. I went home and immediately ate 2 of the Fried Rice dinners, and again got sick within about 4 hours. Again I have a sleepless night with extreme discomfort, but not as bad as the second time I got food poisoning, and again in the morning I felt better.

It is my belief that they didn't throw out all the frozen food. Frozen food that they thought would make it through the 3 day outage such as rice would be ok.

On Feb 21 I took back the turkey there and got a refund. I did not take back the rice for 2 reasons. First they are only a 1$ apiece, and 2nd I didn't want it to look like I was scamming them.

Proving food poising looks to me like a uphill battle, unless there are others like me that have been poisoned. My 3rd case of food poisoning on the other hand may not be as hopeless as it seems. If they did not throw out all the frozen and refrigerated food as they said it is a different matter, after all their own surveillance cameras may show a different story! I am also sure that the people that insure they would like to know if all the food they claimed was thrown out was in fact done.

I still have yet to throw out 1 unopened Chicken pot pie, and 1 Chicken Fried Rice and 2 opened Chicken Fried Rice dinners. The codes on those dinners may show that they were thrown out with the insurance company. As for now, I don't think I will ever buy frozen or refrigerated food there again.  | Symptoms: Nausea, Vomiting

Five Corners Meat Company Ltd. has issued a recall for its Canada 653 brand ground meat products due to the presence of extraneous material, specifically pieces of plastic. The affected products have been distributed in British Columbia and Yukon. The issue was identified during routine inspections by … See More
the Canadian Food Inspection Agency. The recall is classified as Class 3, indicating a low risk of adverse health consequences if consumed.

The recall includes four products under the Canada 653 brand:
- Medium Ground Beef Pork Blend (variable size, batch "16697") - best-before date of 24/03/22.
- Regular Ground Beef (454g, UPC 0 062639 375195) - best-before date of 24/03/22.
- Extra Lean Ground Beef (454g, UPC 0 062639 375201) - best-before date of 24/03/22.
- Lean Ground Beef (454g, UPC 0 056364 902603) - best-before date of 24/03/22.

If you have this product at home, do not consume it and return it to the store where it was purchased.

Consuming food contaminated with plastic pieces can potentially cause harm, depending on the size and shape of the plastic. Small, sharp pieces could cause injury to the mouth, throat, or digestive tract. Larger pieces could potentially cause choking or blockages in the digestive system. However, small, non-sharp pieces are likely to pass through the digestive system without causing harm. It's important to note that repeated or long-term exposure to certain types of plastics may have additional health effects, but this is outside the scope of foodborne pathogens and illnesses.

If you or a loved one are harmed or experiencing any symptoms, it is important to report it. Reporting can help to detect & resolve outbreaks early and prevent others from being harmed, and enables better surveillance. If symptoms persist, seek medical care.
