Burger Box Roadhouse, Voortrekker Road, Monument, Krugersdorp, South Africa

1 month ago •reported by user-qxjhd312

3 weeks ago my husband and I were at Burger Box. He ate cordon blue and got food poisoning. We thought it was just a fluke. Last night I was there again with my friend and she woke up during the night sick with food poisoning symptoms. … See More
I had a hot dog each time and managed to remain okay. (Viennas are highly processed). But it seems any proper meat based food is risky. Getting very worried about Burger Box's quality. Never going there again.  | Symptoms: Nausea, Diarrhea, Vomiting

I ate a chicken piece which had uncleaned gizzard half peace, which was very sour and tasted badly, I went to the shop and reported it, the assistant lady said that she was aware that the store's meat of the day was different as she tasted other … See More
meat which was off. I asked the lady if I wouldn't be sick and she said no I'll be fine and offered me another meal which was a burger meal. After driving a few minutes I started feeling a somehow in my stomach, and got a headache with a slight fever. I stopped at the next KFC and asked for advice, the manager called the other KFC and the same assistant called me and I explained everything. She later said I should go to the doctor as this will be dealt by the insurance of the company.  | Symptoms: Nausea, Fever, Headache

Tiger's Milk Muizenberg, Sidmouth Rd, Muizenberg, Cape Town, South Africa

Went for lunch with my family. Service took ages and I was brought the wrong food - I ordered an Asian calamari salad, and instead was served a weird dry salad (no dressing at all) with a few sad pieces of calamari. Upon sending it back to … See More
the kitchen they informed me that they ran out of the ingredients for the dressing, so had just served the salad dry. I ended up eating my dad’s entire side salad instead, and developed horrific food poisoning as a result - the past 2 days have been a nightmare, I’ve never been so sick in my life. My dad is 72 - if he’d eaten the salad instead of me and gotten poisoned it could have ended in hospitalisation or worse.  | Symptoms: Nausea, Diarrhea, Vomiting

Danish Custard Pastry, Checkers Fx Hartbeespoort, Magalies Blvd, Schoemansville, Hartbeespoort, South Africa

February 21,2024 . Last week. I had purchased a Danish Custard pastry from Checkers, Hartebeespoort. There was mold in it. I have been to a doctor who prescribed medication for my symptoms
I purchased a Danish Custard pastr from Checkers Hartebeespoort Wednesday 21 February 2024, I had … See More
eaten into the pastry and halfway through noticed a rotting/mold on the Custard as well as the pastry was burnt. Immediately I stopped eating the pastry. I emailed Checkers Hartebeespoort and they offered me a replacement and brushed it off, I asked the representative "how can you replace something that made me sick I have already lost trust in Checkers " I then found a Complaint number on Google and sent a whatsapp message with the pictures. I then got some Gaviscon and Immodium as since then I have had an upset, runny tummy. Eventually on Friday I went to see a doctor as these symptoms have not stopped. The doctor has given me medication and today 5 days later I am still in pain with the same symptoms, no one has contacted me today. Last week when I had spoken to someone else from Head Office she had told me that there was mold on the pastry.  | Symptoms: Diarrhea, Nausea, Vomiting

Shoprite Noordgesig, New Canada Road, Orlando, Soweto, South Africa

Suspected food poisoning. Symptoms: Diarrhea, Nausea, Vomiting, Stomach Pain, Cramps, Chills, Headache
Suspected source: Willards Cheese Curls
Onset: Less than 4 hours
Duration: Less than 4 hours
Sick: Me
Additional information: Yesterday 21 February late night around 19:45 I bought Willards Cheese Curls at Shoprite in Noordgesig. … See More
I had been fine the whole day but a few minutes after eating the Cheese Curls i begun feeling nauseous accompanied by a migraine, I ignored the symptoms at first cause I’m used to eating Cheese Curls and they have never affected me this way, little did i know the danger that awaits. By 22:00 when i was preparing for bedtime the symptoms worsened, I was weak and blamed dehydration so I drank water and fell asleep but within even 30 minutes into my sleep I felt the need to rush to the toilet where I experienced bad diarrhoea and was vomiting badly , what i noticed was that I was vomiting all the Cheese Curls out! After vomiting a couple of times till no Cheese Curls where left in me I felt better! So i do not know if the Cheese Curls where the problem or the Cheese Curls are a problem because of the store I bought them in! I’m devastated and weak as all the vomiting I experienced left my body weak!  | Symptoms: Diarrhea, Nausea, Vomiting, Stomach Pain, Cramps, Chills, Headache
