    Chiles rellenos in good ol' Torrance, California some thirty years ago and I still remember the experience!

    As others have said, at least it's a good start on that weight-loss program

    My sympathies. I'm still recovering from a bout of food poisoning that hit me on Good Friday. It resulted in an imflamed colon, (colitis) and I was in bed with what I thought was the flu for two weeks, and then in the hospital for seven days, By then, my kidneys were shutting down. All in all, it's been a rough road to travel, but I'm finally getting my strength back. Glad you were able to recover quickly. Hope you never have to go through it again.

    The worst part about me experience is that I lost 24 lbs., and my kilts don't fit me any more. I've had to shift the buckles. My Argyll jackets don't fit me any more either. My wife likes it that I've lost weight, so I'll have to take the jackets to a tailor!

    You might consider saving the packet, any remaining salad (refrigerated), and contacting the Center for Disease Control (CDC). As you know, plenty of liquids...!

    Egads, I feel for you. It must have been really bad if you wished you were dead but I know the feeling.

    This.

    It's possible that others are getting sick from it too. If you don't report it, the word won't get out. People can DIE from this, Josh. It's important to help the 'powers that be' keep track of tainted food. You're a strong healthy man, and look what it did to you. Would you want someone's elderly grandmother or precious baby daughter to risk death by eating food from the same batch, if they could avoid it through community alerts?

    As you know Sydnie, I live in Lomita so I hope this place is out of business. I do check the Daily Breeze weekly list of closures.

    Ugh. Not fun. I've had it in the past, as most of us have at one time or another. I'm glad yours is over. Hope to never get it again myself, but the odds are never in our favor.

    Is it just me, or is this happening with more frequency now? Storebought stuff, i mean.
    I wish I believed in reincarnation. Where's Charles Martel when you need him?
