who we shared our lunch with, has started throwing up. The only thing we all did together was eat there.
3 if the 4 people who ate there are severely sick, and those 3 shared food there. Ate there for a late lunch on 12/26/21. The next day by 8 pm started feeling sick. Got diarrhea, vomiting, chills. Throwing up and diarrhea every 20 to 30 minutes all night long. Can’t keep any food or water down. 20 hours in feeling a little better, can keep water and tiny bites down for about 4 hours before vomiting again.This is the worst sick I’ve ever been my entire life. All these same symptoms and timeline for 2 people, now the 3rd, my nearly 80 year old mother who lives in a different town, just started throwing up. We had shared our lunch with her.
12/29 Update: The 3 of us that got sick also each had the Rainforest Ricky non-alcoholic fruit drink. It was either the drink or the food that was shared. The food was the Chicken Quesadilla appetizers and the Awesome Appetizer Adventure.
I’m feeling a little better 39 hours after I started getting sick. But I’m still very weak and can’t eat much. I am not happy to have missed 2 days of work and having no sick pay. So I am out those wages. Also it’s putting my coworkers in a bind because they are already short staffed with covid and now have to cover my shifts.
I also spent like $50+ on souvenirs at their souvenir shop, and now I don’t even want to us to wear those t-shirts advertising their restaurant. I will never ever go there again.
What I’d really like is for the Gurnee Mills to reimburse us for the way-too-expensive food and drink that made us violently ill, for the souvenir t-shirts, sweatshirt, and magnet that all say their name on them that I now want to throw in the trash, and for my two days of missed work. The total of all of that would be about $400.00. I’m sure we won’t see a dime.
I will let everyone I know to never risk eating there.
