Pesto, like other jarred foods, could be the source of food poisoning. In 2013, more than 50 individuals in Italy fell ill after consuming pesto that had been contaminated with Clostridium botulinum. Symptoms associated with a Clostridium botulinum infection include diarrhea, blurred vision, and difficulty swallowing.

Today is March 17th, I went to this restaurant for lunch around 2:15. I got the new caprese, pesto and salmi sandwich. Are the whole thing and a bag of bbq chips with a larg ice water. Everything tasted fine. Not even 45 minutes I start to... See More feel so nauseous. Pale in the face, felt like I was going to pass out. That’s when the diarrhea started. Probably 3-4 hours after that I still have bad diarrhea but I threw up me entire meal. I don’t know what was in it but my tummy didn’t like it. That’s the 3rd time I’ve had that sandwich but the first time that I’ve gotten sick after eating it. It’s about 9:43 and knock on wood haven’t thrown up again | Symptoms: Nausea, Diarrhea, Vomiting, Stomach Pain See Less

We bought a box of seasoned mussels; I don't remember the brand name, but they were butter garlic flavored. About 2-3 hours afterwards, my husband began profusely throwing up, and has been to the restroom to throw up 2 more times. We had the mussels with pesto... See More pasta, so that's the only thing that would cause his symptoms. Myself and our kids did not experience any symptoms. | Symptoms: Vomiting See Less
