Chicken Texture, Severe Symptoms - Zaxby's, Smyrna Georgia

2205 Cobb Parkway Southeast, Smyrna, 30080 Georgia, United States

Yesterday, Friday, November 17th, 2023, at 6:08 PM, my husband and I shared a Chicken Finger Plate at Zaxby's Chicken Fingers & Buffalo Wings, 2205 Cobb Parkway Southeast, Smyrna, GA, USA. We weren’t impressed with the meal because the chicken had a weird texture (extremely chewy), but we shrugged it off. Nine hours later, my husband was nauseous, vomiting, diarrhea, chills, fever, abdominal pain, and extreme joint pain as well. I only have headaches, nausea, abdominal pain, and a sore throat. All of these symptoms are signs of salmonella poisoning. I do not want to have to leave a bad report. However, this is no joke. Thankfully we are young with good health so it should pass within the week. I do not believe that Zaxbys is following the rules and protocols to ensure the health of its customers. This meal is the only food we’ve eaten out of the ordinary, so I’m confident it’s the cause. I have to contact the local health department when they open on Monday. I’ve never seen my husband this sick. | Symptoms: Nausea, Diarrhea, Vomiting, Fever, Headache, Chills, Joint Pain, Sore Throat, Stomach Pain
