Gyro Food Poisoning

Gyros can very well be the source of food poisoning. Improperly prepared meat and fresh vegetables could lead to contamination with harmful bacteria such as E.coli and Salmonella. In more serious instances, the tomatoes could be infected with Hepatitis A, which led to an outbreak in Idaho in 2012.

I ate from that place before but always wondered how clean it was and I stopped eating there because it started to look sloppy and different individual cooks. No more!  | Symptoms: Nausea, Vomiting, Loss of Appetite
