Got sick from a Movietheater? What you need to know

The Landmark, West Pico Boulevard, Los Angeles, CA, USA

We saw the joker last night and had buttered popcorn - about 6 hours later both my girlfriend and I were throwing up. We have been sick all night. We only ate home cooked meals that day so we really think the butter on the popcorn did this. The food we ate at home did not get us sick the day before. | Symptoms: Diarrhea, Nausea, Vomiting
