Bought 2 chili’s dogs before work. Got a nasty headache all through my shift. When I got puked my lungs out and all the food I ate from cheekers came out. I felt HORRIBLE! After I puked I felt better. Little did I know it wasn’t just the chilli dog because when I ate the big Buford a few hours later I went right back to feeling sick. I don’t know what is going on with cheekers in Delray because they need to be closed down because getting food poisoning is one of the worse feelings. | Symptoms: Diarrhea, Nausea, Vomiting, Headache
