Smoothie King, Rand Road, Palatine, IL, USA

I ordered a Vegan Nutty Super Grain on 4/9. After finishing the 40 ounces, a few hours later, I became deathly ill (throwing up/diarrhea at the same time). While I was drinking the smoothie, it didn't taste right - for example, the peanut butter didn't really taste … See More
like peanuts. The throwing up lasted for over 24 hours, and also consisted of diarrhea. My wife ordered a smoothie from the same Smoothie king on on 4/5 (Vegan Mocha Cold Brew) - and only drank half of her 32 ounce smoothie - because it didn't taste right. She also threw up horribly for 12 hours, and then had a fever after. I will NOT be going back to this location, or any other smoothie king location. My wife and I called over TWICE - to the store and corporate, and they could care less. We're still waiting for the call back from Smoothie King (which won't happen, as they just say that). NOT trying to get anything out of this, except warning others they'll get sick if they order from this location. You messed up Smoothie king, I was spending $50 per week, which will now be $0.  | Symptoms: Nausea, Diarrhea, Vomiting
