We ate muscles yesterday and have been very sick since. High fever, diarrhea, stomach cramps and headache. Can’t get out of bed. So sad it happened from our favourite and very trusted pub. Maybe they have a new cook? | Symptoms: Nausea, Diarrhea, Fever, Cramps, Headache See Less

Stagg Slow Burn Chili, Save-On-Foods, King George Boulevard, Surrey, BC, Canada

I had a can of Stagg Chili and very shortly after experienced upset stomach, and explosive diarrhea which became a problem 90-120 minutes later. Had 4 trips to the washroom in the last 2 hours, all of which have been awful and uncomfortable. I can handle spicy... See More foods normally, this so called Slow Burn variant of Stagg Chili was a Fast Burn that lingers, and I do not recommend. | Symptoms: Diarrhea, Cramps, Stomach Pain See Less
