Causes of Food Poisoning? Posted: 02-11-06 12:51pm
My stomach/intestine area has been upset
for about 2-3 days and i'm trying to trace
the cause. There are three things I ate
that might be suspect.
1) canned mandarin oranges - they were in
my fridge, which I accidentally left open
for 9+ hours while I was at work. I
threw everything else away except for
this, which I refridgerated again and then
ate. Botulism? I don't know much about
this disease.
2) chunky peanut butter - this was new to
my diet this week. Although i've eaten
peanut butter before without getting
sick.
3) undercooked chicken breast - I cooked
it for a maybe 30 minutes or so in a
covered pot filled with water on medium
high heat, but it was really thick. I
ate maybe 4-8 ounces before I realized the
inside wasn't cooked all the way.
I'm thinking it might be the chicken
breast but would that last for 2-3 days.
All my other cases of upset stomach lasted
1 day at the max; they also were only in
my stomach, where this weird feeling is in
my intestine too, I think.
