Veg Burrito Causes Nausea - Taco Bell, Thousand Oaks California

25 South Rancho Road, Thousand Oaks, 91360 California, United States

Time and date: 7:20pm on 5/31/23

Food: Large Baja Blast, Fiesta Veggie Burrito, veggie Mexican Pizza, and Cinnabon Delights.

Symptoms: nausea, stomach cramps, fever like chills, mild heartburn and regurgitation.

What happened: Ate here for the first time in ages. I find their plant-based options bland and I wasn't willing to spend extra on guacamole. So I opted for ordering items with some cheese/ sour cream. I avoid dairy normally, and I don't have lactose intolerance, so I thought my stomach could handle it alright. Everything tasted fine, nothing odd.

1-2 hours later I began to feel ill/off which quickly turned to nausea. I went to lie down for bed and the nausea was quickly intensifying. My forehead was covered in sweat, despite having chills.
My stomach began to cramp too at this point. Having experienced food poisoning before, I knew my body was on the brink of vomiting and definitely would if I got up to use the bathroom.
Despite better judgment, I fought to keep my food down (I was tired and just wanted to sleep; I also have a deep fear of vomiting). I did end up falling asleep but woke up around 3:30am with heartburn bothering my esophagus. I sat upright, coughed lightly, and had a moment of regurgitation.
My stomach still ached but it was far less than before. I was up another 2-3 hours, during which I drank almost 2 bottled waters.
Fell back asleep for a few hours. When I woke my stomach walls felt a bit sensitive but otherwise I felt okay. Ate some corn cereal with oatmilk and felt fine (same thing and only food I had the day before other than the taco bell). It's evening now and I still feel fine despite not vomiting or having bowel issues.

Not entirely sure what happened but I thought it best to report in case other people got sick, too. | Symptoms: Nausea, Fever, Vomiting, Cramps, Chills, Cough, Heartburn, Sweating, Stomach Pain
