Syrup of ipecac
I put a little bit of shredded cheese on some highly seasoned food I'd
made, then put on really intense hot sauce. It was pretty disappointing, and I figured I'd gotten the seasonings wrong. I'd eaten about half a plate when I decided to sprinkle some more cheese on. I smelled this off smell. Turned out it was the cheese, and I hadn't smelled it originally because I was sitting right underneath a ceiling fan. The cheese smelled really bad. I tried to get myself to throw up, but I couldn't. So, I locked up the building and went to Walgreen's to buy the ipecac. It works. That was at about 4 or 4:30, and my stomach still feels like **** from it (it's 8:30). So bad that I might not even be able to drink tonight. I don't think I'll end up in the hospital with food poisoning though. From now on, I'm smelling things carefully every single time I open them. If that **** had botulism, I could've died. On my tombstone it could have read, "Here lies Bryan. He ate bad cheese." --Bryan |

About an hour after eating it my stomach hurt sooooo badly, all the way around, like someone was tightening a steel belt around my waist. At first I thought it was gas from eating broccoli, because I didn't feel nauseous at all. Eventually I did though, and that turkey was the only thing I threw up. Methinks, you better mentally prepare yourself to tell Jason about your panties. Ralf #2 -- They were funky China men from funky Chinatown They were chopping them up, they were chopping them down |

On my tombstone it could have read, "Here lies Bryan. He ate bad cheese." --Bryan Can you really get sick from bad cheese? It would have to be really, really bad. And you won't get botulism from cheese. It's an anaerobic bacterium. Cheese, except for "cheese food" will have live bacteria, molds and stuff in or on it. It was the original reason the milk changed from a simple curd to whatever kind of cheese you're eating. They don't stop being bacteria just because the cheese is at a stage in its "spoilage" where you like it. They donut know they're making cheese; they think they're having dinner. They keep on chuggin' until there's no more dinner (and the cheese smells like bad, bad feet) and then they stop because they die. As they proceed through the stages, the cheese will smell stronger and stronger. That's no indication that it will harm you; it's just continuing the natural process. There are essentially two kinds of bacteria involved; spoilage ones and pathogens. The spoilage ones will change the food, but they won't hurt you. There are few pathogens likely to be found in commercial cheese. When's the last time the 11:00 news showed somebody dead with their faces in a cheese plate...? Pastorio |

I just read it today and was trying to think of a comeback when I came across yours. Something about it must have been his time to make the donuts, but I couldn't make it work. Those sugar carbs sure are pernicious. Barb |

Those sugar carbs sure are pernicious. Bring up the Rod Serling music. I tried to make some LC donuts the other day nad they were a resounding failure. Tasted like crap, had the texture of mulch, nad smelled like several wild animals had already enjoyed them repeatedly. Otherwise, not bad. Probably still resonating in teh synapses. Or my spiel checker... Pastorio |
