Breakfast Cereal Food Poisoning

Breakfast Cereal Food Poisoning

It is possible to get sick from cereal. In 2018 Quaker Oats recalled Capn' Crunch due to a Salmonella outbreak that infected 135 people. In 2010 Kellogg's recalled 28 million boxes of cereal due to 'off-flavor and smell'  and the possibility of symptoms, including nausea and diarrhea.

Lucky charms cereal, Yuba City, CA, USA

3 weeks ago •reported by user-rjnwk368

I ate two large bowls of Lucky Charms cereal before bed last night (about 4 cups of cereal in total). And got up about 5 hours later with major cramping, diarrhea and heartburn. Output was green. Cramping and mushy stooling still occuring 12 hours later. This is … See More
not the first time the Lucky Charms illness has struck. I’ve been suspicious of the cereal’s association to this affect in the past but didn’t feel certain until of the connection until today. I usually eat two bowls of cereal but my primary gotos are FrostedFlakes and FrostedMiniWheats. I eat the lucky charms from my kids’ supply when I don’t have my gotos available. My kids are little and only eat smaller portions. I’m done buying this stuff for them—something is up with the cereal’s ingredients. Why are they putting in something that causes this sort of GI response? #LuckyCharms  | Symptoms: Diarrhea, Stomach Pain, Cramps, Heartburn

Used fairlife in my cereal, had severe stomach pains after about an hour. Have been drinking fairlife for over 6 years and never had a problem once. I noticed that this bottle of fairlife had a different font used to stamp the date on the bottle than … See More
what I’m used to seeing. Don’t know if these means new warehouse or different distribution. But this milk gave me horrible stomach pain. Not gas, not bubbling, just severe pain at top of stomach.  | Symptoms: Stomach Pain

Cheerios, Target, East 3rd Street, Bloomington, Indiana, USA

3 weeks ago •reported by user-nbtg9328

I'd like to preface by saying I have been eating little cereal over recent years, but when I have eaten it, I've tended toward organic varieties. My budget is being squeezed, and I can't always afford organic now, so I recently opted for some flavored Cheerios to … See More
use as a snack. I ate several servings of the limited edition "Strawberry Banana Cheerios" approx. two weeks ago, and within hours of ingestion each time, had mucosal diarrhea (that definitely smelled like Cheerios). I thought maybe it was the variety, as I hadn't had it before. Yesterday, I decided to try the "Chocolate Cheerios" I had purchased at the same time, and sadly had the exact same reaction. Something is definitely wrong with Cheerios.

Frosted Miniwheats, Vancouver, BC, Canada

3 weeks ago •reported by user-dzgjh257

Miniwheats destroys my guts. If I eat one bowl it's a guaranteed crappy (literally) day with excessive gas, bloating, nausea, and of course, explosive diarrhea. What has changed with this cereal? I used to eat a lot of it with no issues, but now it puts me through a living hell.  | Symptoms: Nausea, Diarrhea, Stomach Pain, Bloating, Gas

Morning Summit Breakfast Cereal, Costco, Albuquerque, NM, USA

1 month ago •reported by user-hqtr1896

For a few weeks now I have been eating morning summit almond cereal. Usually after dinner. I’ve been noticing an increase of burping and gas and a feeling like water and food isn’t going all the way down to my stomach after eating and the rest of … See More
the next day. Feeling really bloated and full to the point of uncomfortable. I started to take lactaid for the milk digestion. Thinking it’s the milk. The day before yesterday I got sick to my stomach and no food or liquid stayed down. Diarrhea and vomiting dehydration lead to leg cramps and fatigue. So I fasted for over 24 hours. Today I had one all meat meal. Plain burger patty and bratwurst. A few hours later I had a bowl of morning summit almond cereal and shortly after that I started feeling gassy and bloated again. Like food didn’t make it down to my belly and it’s stuck where my esophagus and stomach meet. Painful and feeling as if it’s making my tummy bloat more as the night goes on. I’m tossing and turning and burping and farting and diarrhea came back. WTH. I’m not blaming the yesterdays stomach sickness on the morning summit cereal but I am concerned that it’s having a negative effect on my digestion and causing the cramping bloating and gas in my stomach. I was concerned I had a really big problem but after reading other folks concerns after eating this cereal I’m convinced it’s the cereal as it’s the only new thing that I’ve added to my diet lately. I will report back after tomorrow and I fast again to release this pressure and hopefully gain my normal digestion back. I’d like to note: I’m 42yo 5’5” tall with 15% body fat. I weight 160lbs. Exercise regularly and I have no known allergies. My wife on the other hand ate some with me and she seems to be doing fine. Purchased at Costco, and this box I brand new..
