Lucky Charms, Costco Wholesale, South Fern Street, Arlington, VA, USA

1 year ago

1200 South Fern Street, Arlington, 22202 Virginia, United States

Purchased Lucky Charms on May 7, 2022. Started experiencing G.I. discomfort (diarrhea, nausea) shortly after eating the box I received. Also gave one of the double box packages to a friend, and he also experienced diarrhea and nausea. Did not connected to the nationwide Lucky charms issue until I had lucky charms from that box again this morning and several hours later the symptoms came back. So I investigated and realized this is the likely culprit of my intermittent nausea and diarrhea over the last couple of weeks. | Symptoms: Nausea, Diarrhea

I really suspect the Chipotle Bitchen’ Sauce from Costco made my husband sick. It’s the only thing he’s eaten that was different from me in weeks and the evening he ate it, he was up all night just hours later. Day two and he’s still in bed... See More with terrible stomach cramping. I found this site while trying to see if by chance this sauce was recalled. I’ve never seen him have this kind of stomach pain in 8 years of being together and I’m a big fan of this sauce! I love it, but I can’t think of anything else it could be. | Symptoms: Nausea, Diarrhea, Stomach Pain See Less

Ordered cheeseburger with bacon, regular fries, and a diet coke with ice. Only ate about half of the cheesburger because it tasted weirdly salty.

Att stadium

There were three of us who went to see Billy Joel and Stevie Nicks on March 9, 2024. We had floor seating. Before the show started, two of us had a frozen margarita from the bar at the rear of the floor seating. About an... See More hour later, I started getting severe stomach cramps and feeling like I needed to get to the restroom ASAP. I spent about 45 minutes in there. The first time. I started to leave the restroom on four different occasions, only to unlatch the door and feel the need to continue “the process”. After feeling like any food and beverage from the last three days had exited my body, I washed my hands and started down the hall. It was in between the two artists, so there were at least 100 ladies in line for the restroom. I saw my friend (who had the other margarita), and she was starting to feel ill at that point too. I figured it would be safe to wait in line with her once again, because by the time I got to the restroom, which looked to be at least an hour of a wait, I would probably need to go again. That time, we both spent 45 minutes to an hour in the restroom wiith severe diarrhea. We had really good seats out on the floor, but unfortunately, we probably only saw a total of about 45 minutes of the concert, because we were unable to leave the restroom. We continued to be sick until the next morning, exchanging who would be in the bathroom back at our hotel room. The third person, who did not have a margarita, never got sick. It was definitely the margarita, as we tasted something a bit off when we were drinking them. We just figured it was a different mixture of ingredients. I complained to the restroom attendant, who I got to see MUCH more than I cared to that night. I told her that we had gotten sick from the margarita. She referred me to the security manager, and pointed out who she was. When I went to her, she was completely uninterested in anything I had to say. | Symptoms: Diarrhea, Cramps See Less

I bought rotisserie chicken at this particular location. I had it for dinner on March 9th midnight, and ever since the meal, I had extreme case of diarrhea and bloating stomach while constantly burping terrible smell. The chicken was pink with trace of blood inside. On March... See More 10th, I’ve gone to the washroom for more than 15 times, on March 11th, I’ve gone for more than 15 times as well. Today I am still feeling quite bad. My body would feel cold and shivering, and since the morning I’ve gone to the washroom like 6 times already. My girlfriend also felt unwell like me. I went to the store asking for explanation on March 11th, while feeling extremely uncomfortable still. The store manager (I don’t know his exact title), besides telling us fill out a report form, was being very skeptical of our situation. He might believe the sickness was caused by other things we had even though we’ve specially told him this is the last thing we had. Furthermore, he kept bringing up that I’m not the member, in which my girlfriend is the member. I’ve only spoken to him because my girl isn’t too proficient in English. He kept saying I’m not the member therefore they can only speak to the member This is unbelievably arrogant and clueless. If anyone who had Costco’s product and got seriously injured, Costco is definitely responsible regardless the user is a member or not, especially when it comes to food safety. Although he promised his manger would call us today, once we missed one call from him in the morning (he also only called 1 number but we out down 2 numbers), we called back multiples times and no one picked up. | Symptoms: Nausea, Diarrhea, Bloating, Burping See Less
