I got very sick from the Box of Honey nut Cheerios, the purple looking box.
Intense cramps, awful pain for three days. Going to Hospital in a.m. to get x-rays to make sure there isn't additional damage

I looked at the box & realized that it was... See More past the date. Dangerous store. I found green wheat tortillas there before. Told them to remove them. Their milk in the Cartons has a weird smell not sour but like cow dung. The County HCA need to fine this store. | Symptoms: Nausea, Cramps, Stomach Pain See Less
