Today, I was diagnosed with food poisoning for the third time since moving to this base in Japan. My husband keeps cooking questionable meat and vegetables from the commissary because he thinks the food from a Japanese grocery store is radioactive. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I got food poisoning for the first time after cooking. Yesterday, I met my boyfriend's family for the first time. FML
Today, I got bad food poisoning. Again. The first time I thought it was the stomach bug that’s going around, so once I felt better, I proceeded to eat leftover food that actually got me sick the first time. FML
Today, as always, I have a very weak stomach. I'm in Japan right now, and all the unfamiliar foods set me off every time I eat. I can choose between having a great time and starving myself half to death, or sitting in my hotel room all day with stomach pains and diarrhea. FML
Today, I got food poisoning from my wedding food. FML
Today, after a week of staying in at night and fighting off a persistent cold, I was finally feeling well again, so I decided to go to my boyfriend's work BBQ. I got food poisoning. FML
Today, I went for lunch at a Chinese restaurant near my home that I have never eaten at before. It was so good I went back tonight for more, and the restaurant has been boarded up. It is closed due to food contamination. Inspections happened today. I ate contaminated food for lunch today. FML
Today, I came home from a four month stay in Africa, where I managed to avoid suffering any serious illness. Some hours after my first meal back at home, I got food poisoning. FML
Today, I was training for my new job at a restaurant. As part of training, they give you free food so you know what to recommend, and the dish I got was really good. Eight hours later I saw it again while I was puking. I got food poisoning from my own workplace. FML
Today, after struggling with anorexia for months, I got food poisoning. FML
Today, my girlfriend and I both developed food poisoning from last night's sushi. Our apartment has one bathroom. FML

Buy food for yourself and let him eat his commissioned food.

I'm waking up, I feel it in my bones, enough to make my system blow, welcome to the new age, to the new age.

Tell your husband he's a dumbass and to stop poisoning you. Seriously, don't eat what he cooks, cook separately.

What caused it is a good idea to stay away from for a bit...

It's a legitimate concern because of the fukushima power plant disaster. Fish have higher levels of radiation in their cells all over the planet because of it affecting radiation in the oceans, so the localized effects on produce being even higher in some areas is not only a possibility but a high probability.

Tell him that it's all imported from California, OP.

Let me guess: your husband is one of the people they do the cartoon field manuals for because words are hard.

The commissary is a grocery store, the only difference is it is cheaper and has no tax. Maybe, it's not the very good food on base, maybe it's your cooking.

"My HUSBAND keeps cooking..." To explain in case you don't get it, either way it's the OP's husband at least partially at fault, either for buying spoiled or otherwise contaminated food, or for cooking it incorrectly. Maybe pay closer attention to phrasing next time instead of assuming the woman is as fault for bad cooking.

Right. It sounds like her husband isn't thoroughly cooking poultry. I've lived at one of the usaf bases in Japan and the commissary is not bad.

Everything is radioactive pretty much anyway. Stand next to a microwave and use your phone.
