“I decided to order a large plate of ribs to eat slowly throughout the week for lunch. Within a few hours I was sick, all I could drink/eat was tea, and veggies. Still have some aversion to eating red meat since. ”

“I ate a portobello mushroom egg Benedict around 4 pm, which contained spinach, yolked eggs, and biscuits 7/7. I ate a veggie wrap on 7/6 around 3 pm from Dustins Bakery. I ate veggie pasta & a peanut butter chocolate 'cake' at 6 pm 7/5 at the Crooked Pine. Felt... See More hot before heading to bed at 12:45 am 7/8. First abdominal cramp occurred after laying down at 1 am. Was awakened at 2:45 am with diarrhea. Laid back down at 3:05 am. Back up at 3:10 am. Guessing it was the eggs based on symptoms and timeline. ”

“Ate here (chicken salad; romaine mix, chicken, fajita veggies, green & red salsa, Pico, sour cream on the side). About 4 hours later I experienced severe stomach pain, cramps, nausea, (sorry!) major diarrhea. This has been persisting into the next day. Trying pedialyte & rice cakes, still vomiting & diarrhea. ”

“Purchased new within the hour, I dipped chopped veggies I had leftover from dinner the day before into the hummus with a little sriracha (a bottle I also had used on food the day before). About 3 minutes after finishing this snack I started feeling nauseaous followed by throwing up... See More all of it a minute later. ”

“Ate a whopper for lunch. 6-8hrs later terrible cramping with diarrhea and vomiting. Sesame seeds were coming out the other end so I know it was them. Pretty sure it was the veggies as my bf ate 3patties with just bacon and pickles on the sandwhich, my whopper had lettuce... See More and tomatoes. ”

“I ate sausage rice and veggies and I have bad diarrhea and I’m burning up and I’m dizzy ”
