Cheerios, IGA Supermarché Bergeron inc., Chemin Ridge, Huntingdon, QC, Canada

2 years ago •reported by user-nmmpf124 • details

Second time from this Cheerios box I’ve been sick with nausea, vomiting and diarrhoea from one handful of the dry cereal. Started to have some nausea after eating Cheerios a couple of years ago but nothing too intense. I was recently pregnant which now seems to have ramped up my symptoms. | Symptoms: Nausea, Diarrhea, Vomiting
