I was low on money and very hungry, I ended up grabbing some Alaskan Crab Salad since I had it before and figured I would be fine. The onslaught of diarrhea for a day proved otherwise.

I love Trader Joe’s Chicken Piccata. This time it gave me explosive, uncontrollable diarrhea within about 12 hours after eating… Smell and look of diarrhea was obviously the caper sauce. .It tasted good and was within the date allowed by one day. I kept it refrigerated before... See More cooking… not sure what happened, but now I’m afraid of having it again.
