Offered me a refund for the bad food I tossed in the trash after it made me sick but did not offer to reimburse me for my medical bills as a result of the awful food poisoning and did NOT even pull the bad product from the store shelves! On the contrary! They RESTOCKED the shelf with MORE!!! Do not buy refrigerated foods from this store! This is not the first incident of me getting bad/spoiled food from this store. Its food quality is going down fast. They should be ashamed for knowingly selling food that makes people sick! ”

My self and my family have had symptoms for the past 3 days. Since coming back to Canada the cramping and diarreah have subsided. I'm just working on eating a whole meal. My children continue to have diarreah and vomitting. If things don't improve today we will be visiting our doctor.
