Egg Food Poisoning

“I ate a burrito with guacamole, fajita veggies, pinto beans, brown rice, chicken, corn salsa, and carnitas. Also had a side of chips and guacamole. Felt sick approximately 5 hours after eating and it had been the only food I had eaten all day. ”

“I bought 3 Big Plater breakfast meals at this restaurant on Sunday morning July 12th 2020. My Grandaghter did not want the eggs but my wife and I did have them. I believe the eggs were what caused the poising since my wife hade a mild case of poising but... See More I have it much more severlely. Symptoms started around 4 pm that afternoon. The breakfast was the only food eaten that day since I got really sick. I’m on day 2 and still have body aches and severe pain along with severe diareha and bloody stool. I will be seeing my physician tomorrow. ”

“Pork ramen Ate ramen started feeling sick after 45 minutes bad stomach pains and my husband had diarrhea at a gas station. Guessing they have reheated broth too many times and our bodies are rejecting it. Had pork ramen with soft boiled eggs ”
