I ate the wedge salad with blue cheese salad dressing. It tasted funny, like extra blue. I have had extra blue cheese made fresh in Austria and loved it, but this unfortunately was nothing like that. I shared a burger with my husband and it touched the salad dressing and the burger had an "extra smoked" taste that I was not a fan of, so after a few bites I gave it back to my husband and he noted that the burger touched the blue cheese salad dressing and had a different flavor, the one I was describing. I started to feel bloated 2 hours after the meal. My (upper abdomen) stomach started cramping 2-3 hours after the meal. At 2 am, about 5-6 hours after the meal, I had diarrhea. I could not eat the next day and had the runs for a solid 38-48 hours. After 48 hours, I had more solid forming stools, but they were still soft and explosive. 72 hours later I finally have soft small formed stools, but nausea and cramping occasionally. Went to the MD and they said it sounds like food poisoning and if it gets worse they will test for e-coli, but stay hydrated and Pepto Pismo. | Symptoms: Nausea, Diarrhea, Vomiting, Bloating, Cramps
