Today, I went out to eat to celebrate getting over the stomach flu. I hadn't eaten solid food in over a week, so I was really excited and ordered my favorite dish. It gave me food poisoning. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
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, after struggling with anorexia for months, I got food poisoning. FML
Today, I didn't feel like cooking when I got home from work, so I decided to go to the local restaurant nearby and do my part in supporting small businesses. Long story short, I woke up later feeling like absolute shit. Hello, food poisoning. FML
Today, I finally won an ongoing battle with my family to go to a restaurant I like, rather than a restaurant I hate with a passion. Now I'm throwing up, and my back is killing me. I'm the only one who got food poisoning. FML
Today, it's been 2 days since I got over having the flu for over a week, missing work the whole time. I just got food poisoning. FML
Today, I got food poisoning from my wedding food. FML
Today, I took my boyfriend out to dinner to an expensive restaurant. He overate, and now I have to nurse him through food poisoning. FML
Today, I tried to cook a nice meal for my sister's friends. It turned out perfect and they enjoyed it, while I was in the bathroom throwing up for two hours due to food poisoning. 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, I was fired from the restaurant I work at because I missed my shift. I missed it because I was in the hospital for food poisoning from the meal I ate at work last night. FML

seems like something that would happen to me. I've found glass in my food twice at really expensive restaurants and metal once. the worst was finding a live maggot in a candy bar I'd already eaten half of

o and I bit a strawberry in half to find a caterpillar. I'm still not sure if it was still a whole or half a caterpillar.

I think we just need to look at our food less.. although everything has just motivated me all the more to stare at what I eat before I eat it

hahaha ya I investigate my food before I eat it.
tencentsakiss 19
yea same and I'm afraid to eat with the lights out haha. I must see what is going in my mouth
sammiller4 3
haha I can eat in the dark.. after I check my food in the light :)

true but then with our luck a spider would fall down from the ceiling onto the plate. as much as I love spiders I don't think they would be tasty to eat.

Eating in the dark is awesome :P. The not knowing what's going into your mouth part is what makes it fun (: No **** (:

YDI for celebrating getting over a stomach flu by going out to eat. If you haven't eaten any real food in a whole week why in the world would the first thing you hit your stomach with be restaurant food?! Are you stupid? The risk of getting undercooked food, because you don't see it prepared yourself, would be too much when your stomach is that delicate. Plus everything in restaurants is highly fatty with butter or oil and full of salt. Why would you think that is the first thing your stomach could handle? In its delicate condition you could easily get 'food poisoning' from food that under normal digestive circumstances your body would break down and digest just fine. YDI for being too dumb to know that was a bad idea.
