I purchased a salad from the salad bar containing egg mayonnaise around 4/5pm on Saturday. Within a few hours I had stomach cramps accompanied by severe diarrhoea. The egg mayonnaise did not look or taste bad so I can only assume it had been sat out too long or contaminated during production. | Symptoms: Nausea, Diarrhea, Vomiting, Cramps
