3796 South Congress Avenue, Lake Worth, 33461 Florida, United States

My 4 year old got Burger King kids 4 piece nugget meal and has had diarrhea and violent vommitting since... this is the only thing he had that we did not eat. And no one else in the house is sick AT ALL so I don’t believe it is viral. After eating it he had really nasty gas/burping. And it was an hour or so later when he first threw up and it hasn’t stopped... onset of diarrhea couple hours later. I’m hoping it will pass quickly... but we won’t be eating BK anytime soon... | Symptoms: Diarrhea, Nausea, Vomiting, Gas, Burping
