Ordered Instacart 10/09 (90 degrees that day), shopper checked out, I then got a notification they had to do another order. Food arrived from start to finish just under 2hrs later. I only eat at home, so I know for a fact it was this order. My cart was mostly yogurt, cheese, creamer, and meat. My food was very warm when it arrived. One of the yogurts I threw away as it was open. Within 12 hours of eating a yogurt, creamer, and cheese I had stomach cramps, bloody diarrhea that lasted for 3 days. My partner had only the creamer, and within 24hrs was vomiting. Instacart didn’t do anything. My food wasn’t kept in a controlled temperature environment. I suspect the shopper threw my order in the car on a hot day, and went back to do the other orders. It was hot that day, and the order took place between 1pm-3pm. I commented on how the food was very warm when I brought the bags in. I should’ve literally listened to my gut. | Symptoms: Nausea, Diarrhea, Vomiting, Cramps, Bloody Stool
