    Guys I contracted food poison couple days ago and it's been misersble... if anybody gets it out here on the road buy those Gatorade that say Replenish, Rehydrate, And Refuel. That seemed to work really good for me. Also I'm eating the traditional saltine crackers. I hope nobody gets this.

    Had it last year. Lasted better part of 7 days. Flying j meat loaf was the culprit. Maximum misery. I decided if that's what it feels like when you are so sick that death is near.... I would welcome death. Never been so sick in my life. Hope your experience isn't as bad as mine was.

    I feel sorry for you. A few years back I took the family out to eat at a new burger place in town. We all ended up sick. Worst week I ever had. Hope you have a speedy recovery.

    I've vomited so much my insides hurt... I'm not gonna eat out for a while... only reason I did was my fridge is home and I haven't had a chance to put it in here..

    I had pot roast at the TA east in OKC back when it had the "Chophouse."

    That's the WTF sickest I've ever been from food poisoning.

    About 48 hours dry heaving, there was nothing there, started drinking water so I didn't split something internally.

    Couldn't hardly stand up at one point.

    I had the quick version from the soup at the TA in Boise last year.

    Just like 6 or 8 hours sick as a dog. Both ends. Nothing like a good clense.
