Poisoned by a dodgy kebab

[NoIDeer]

I've eaten a million kebabs from the sh1ttiest places on the planet without problem but one prawn from a posh restaurant in Oban (long gone btw) or a salad at the Harvester in Rugby and I was beaten.

How those elephants legs stay safe is a mystery?

Your first mistake was assuming said kebab maker was a professional, come to think of it - even competent for that matter

All been there mate

Plenty of fluids, wishing you a speedy recovery

I always check the FSA hygeine scores of any place i buy food from. Im amazed that some places are allowed to operate for years with ratings of 1 or 2.

The only kebab that made me bad was the one I dropped.
I did lay down on the pavement to eat it tho.

Someone left a half a kebab overnight on a minibus we had hired in Glasgow. One lad went looking for his phone on the bus early next morning and projectile vomited onto the drivers seat when he opened the door.

He came into tell us what happened and the thought of the aroma made him gawk all over the kitchen floor. Thinking "it can't be that bad" another lad went out to check and he gawked all over the steps and door of the mini bus. We got taxi's to the airport.

I was drunkenly making my way back to my digs in Baku and stopped for a kebab, pulled the plastic bag wrapper back and ate it as I continued to meander along. When almost home and almost at the other end of my kebab I looked down to see that it had also been wrapped in paper.
Fortunately no ill effects the next day.......at least not from the kebab.

Always avoided the ‘Elephant’s Leg’ reheated/cooled/reheated - no thanks.

However, a chicken kebab is chicken and salad in a bit of bread. Nothing wrong with that if hygiene rules are applied.

A work colleague of mine used to be a food health inspector, she used to take regular samples from the elephant leg but never found any issues, had something to do with the amount of salt and other preservatives that go into it.

I personally stick to the chicken shish . Salad and chilli sauce . Never been ill yet from one. I work with a lot off different types of animals though , so probably got a strong constitution which may help.

I've had a few kebabs in my time, but thankfully have never suffered any ill effects as a result. However, I once bought a steak from a well-respected butchers in our village and spent the next 24 hours doing a passable impression of a double-ended Roman Candle. Just goes to show . . . . .

I worked in Pune India for 3 months with no food problems then I took a midday chicken KFC on the main drag for a change and was seriously ill for a week. That's me done with KFCs.

Just an observation but in our town centre after a weekend, the pigeons and seagulls eat all types of thrown away takeaways except kebabs.

It comes to something when even a flying rat and a shite hawk won't touch them.

Seagulls around here are known Wigan pigeons. Pigeon as dockers because off the amount around Liverpool docks.

My father, who was from Widnes, always referred to feral pigeons as dockers as they all came from Liverpool.

Before yesterday I had only had food poisoning in the USA (Pizza Hut), Brazil (pizza) and after my mrs “cooked” a pork joint whilst ****ed and gave me the pink half which hadn’t been properly cooked. I nearly had to call myself an ambulance next day. I couldn’t even stand up off the bathroom floor.

No. Unusually for me I ate all of it!

I had a colleague at work that was very ill after eating a moody curry and he'd kept some in the fridge. It went a long way towards getting the restaurant prosecuted

Hmmm, sounds familiar. I had a dodgy pork dish in Spanish hotel restaurant where we were staying. Double ended projectiles, fortunately the hand basin was only half a step from the bog!! How do you clear a blocked wash basin in a hotel bathroom??? Wire coat hanger and a lot of determination! I slept it off once emptied out and really enjoyed my breakfast next morning
