Cool site - lists all 'outbreaks' - the site state: " To be included in outbreakdatabase.com, the outbreak must have supporting documentation from public health agencies, journal articles, media reports, etc. Names of stores, brands, restaurants, or other sources are listed if they have been publicly identified previously." https://www.outbreakdatabase.com/ I skim read couple of articles - Interesting point is that in at least some cases where there is an identified proven issue with a location for a given date/food item- not every person in the group will get food poisoning. For example in this case only 75% of the boys (who had the same dish: tacos) got ill: https://news.sd.gov/newsitem.aspx?id=12503

Mexico products scare me. USDA only test small amounts and trucks drive on to deliver. Some products are done eaten and people sicken before they get the tests results back. All this world trade is good for some but if you’re the one sick and suffering or dead then you’re the loser. The worse thing to happen to our foodstuffs is when FDA approved doubling sulfur levels in animals foodstuffs. This also increases in human foods as well. It’s coming from wet milling grains with sulfuric acids type chemicals to separate grains into different parts for more processing

See More numbness, instant chills, shakes, diarrhea, stomach cramping, right side of face numbness and bottom lip swelling. Acid in my stomach made me taste a metallic taste I instantly took a Benadryl, not thinking anything severe. I visited medical care and was told I now have gerd, chocolate allergy, prescribe epi pens, daily Pepcid and Zyrtec daily until see the allergist. I was seen at two medical clinics and was not prescribed any steroid or anything else. I suffered for months after this, my 3 rd visit to the medical center was disappointed that I was not given any steroids, because I still was having issues since then. Later on I had a Reece’s candy bar and I got an itchy mouth and weird feeling in top of my mouth. So now it be a chocolate allergy period!! | Symptoms: Vomiting, Diarrhea, Numbness, Chills, Swelling, Allergic Reaction See Less
