Friday 5: Bad Food

Friday 5: Bad Food
Hosted by www.friday5.org

1. What was the last meal that caused you to be ill? The last time I ate at Kentucky Fried Chicken I became very ill. Now, every time I drive by the restaurant my stomach hurts.
2. Are there any places you never dine anymore because of a bad experience hours after the meal? Kentucky Fried Chicken and a local steak house that makes horrible steaks.
3. What’s your prescription for dealing with a food-caused illness? I drink plenty of liquids and "ride out" the illness. If it gets too bad I will see a doctor but I am usually fine within 24 hours.
4. When friends tell you about coming down with food-caused illnesses, do you avoid the places they name, or do you figure it’s a dice-roll wherever you go? I usually don't avoid the places they tell me about unless I have had a similar experience with the same place.
5. After numerous citations, a very, very popular restaurant that you’re quite fond of is shut down by the health department until it can get everything up to code. When the health department gives the restaurant the o.k. to reopen, do you go? I would try it once to see how the food tastes and see if the place is clean. But I would not go out of my way to try it.
