Normally the grants and also economic financings are generated for infrastructure renovations to the home’s home heating, electric or plumbing system strategies.

Thanks, RickZ. I’ll remember that, especially if I don’t plan on visiting that particular restaurant again. I’ve heard that the server’s bodily fluids somehow end up the food of customers who complain, and that’s not a scenario I contemplate with any enjoyment.

Next time I get the ‘tude, I’ll leave a penny. Just to show that I didn’t forget.

Just an FYI from an old restaurant hand (worked in many varieties of restaurants in college): Never leave a penny for bad service. Always leave two, as in ‘giving the server my two cents’ worth’. Servers understand what two pennies mean, and those two pennies do have a meaning to any server beyond the customer being a cheapskate.

My two cents’ worth.

Any home remedies of yours to share, to hasten along the recovery?

Gallons of water each day. One of the cheaper and efficient ways of purging the body of poisons.

I would recommend deep breathing as well in order to expand the lungs, diaphragm, and guts. Helps digestion and the flow of blood (or Chi as Asians call it). The Chinese would call breathing methods “qiqong”.

You might also be able to moderate the acid/base balance of your stomach to ease the discomfort, but I have no idea what happens to the Ph of stomach acid that is diluted with food bacteria.

The Japanese, strangely, still believe that women should acquire the feminine art of cooking in order to increase their Appeal (an English word adopted by the Japanese, meaning more than what we take it to mean).

The reason why humans are okay with bacteria is only because we killed all the harmful ones when we discovered fire and started cooking our food.

Food poisoning caused by exotoxins typically give symptomes around 24 hours after digestion. This includes Staphylococcus aurelius, botulin toxin and other, much more rare kinds.
Salmonella is the most frequent pathogen in food poisoning, especially often associated with salads and eggs.

Incubation period for salmonella is 1-4 hours, and the more you eat of the food that contains it, the faster it hits. I've had it, I can vouch for this, and my sister, who's a vastly experienced ER nurse (30+ years), verifies it.

So sorry you had such a miserable experience, neo. I’ve had food poisoning several times so I feel for you.
Rest up and take the priobiotics and I hope you feel completely recovered soon

Neo: probably staph enterotoxin, then.
But many do not distinguish between a toxin and an infection when calling it food poisoning.

Ya know, it is getting so you can’t tell what kind of food or service you are going to get just by the appearance or location of the place providing it. I have had awful, virtually inedible food at very expensive restaurants–a memorable and horrible, very expensive brunch at the Ritz Carleton in downtown Atlanta comes to mind, where they were unable to produce decent, hot, scrambled eggs and home fries after a couple of tries–and, from what I saw, they didn’t really care, either, vs. a local, hole in the wall gas station, that my wife assures me produces extraordinarily good coffee. Go figure.

I guess that the main thrust of my complaint is that people have not been taught, and no longer really care, and certainly no longer have the ideal in mind that–whatever they do, whatever the job they might find themselves in–they should try to do a good job, the best job that they can possibly do–such an attitude is, from the evidence, just a laughable, naé¯ve, and alien concept in today’s society. The idea that a “menial” job such as preparing food or working in a service industry should be done as best the person doing it can do is, apparently, as dead as the Dodo.

Tom: I felt fine when I ate there, got quite sick a couple of hours later, as did my dining companion, who also had eggs and we shared some of the dinner. Ergo, food poisoning.
