Ate a migas and steak taco here with some avocado cream salsa on Monday afternoon 4/15 and felt sick a couple hours later. I’ve been concerned a little bit about their food safety lately (not super well kept kitchens, sauces are left outside at room temperature in … See More
coolers outside for too long, etc.). Meat didn’t seem to be served at the appropriate temperature. Wouldn’t be surprised if there’s some cross contamination happening as well underneath the owners noses.

At noon, I ate a bag of Hershey mixed flavored chocolate that I bought at Dollar General the day before. After sleeping, I felt nauseous, wanted to throw up, and had a very upset stomach. Then I looked at other things at Dollar General (one near Poinsett State Park) yesterday and found that the contact lens care solution actually expired on March 1st. Face wash and makeup remover also don't have a shelf life at all. Therefore, it is suspected that the chocolate has expired, but since it is a pouch, the packaging has been thrown away. I don't understand why they sell expired products.  | Symptoms: Nausea, Other

I will make an appointment to confirm with my doctor tomorrow. I was not going to go through the hassle until the manager at Sabrro completely dismissed the possibility that I got sick from there. I teach the food safety manager courses, I know the rules, I … See More
know it is possible for me to have gotten sick. I did not appreciate her dismissal. I had severe vomiting and diarrhea for the past 2 days. When I initially bit into my pepperoni Stromboli it was cold. It's possible I did not get sick from there, but they were the only place I ate from up to that point. So now I am attempting to prove it , and bring it to upper management about their lack of understanding and dismissal of my concern.  | Symptoms: Nausea, Diarrhea, Vomiting

Trader Joe's, 4th Street North, St. Petersburg, FL, USA

I love the customer service there and all their employees, they’re so sweet and helpful. I cannot help but notice multiple times consuming Trader Joe’s products and numerous times eating the frozen meals from there, I have all had major issues processing and breaking down the food. … See More
I would have extreme diarrhea. So today I pooped and noticed I pooped a lot, this is my 3rd round of pooping after flushing 2 other consecutive rounds. Im finding what looks like it could be parasites but I never had that happen before nor know if that’s what they look like if they even come out of your rectum. I’m looking harder and it seems like it may be noodles and bean sprouts and scallions that didn’t get digested. That definitely look like it was the Trader Joe’s frozen vegetable pad Thai. I ate other meals after that. I am confused.  | Symptoms: Diarrhea
