know it is possible for me to have gotten sick. I did not appreciate her dismissal. I had severe vomiting and diarrhea for the past 2 days. When I initially bit into my pepperoni Stromboli it was cold. It's possible I did not get sick from there, but they were the only place I ate from up to that point. So now I am attempting to prove it , and bring it to upper management about their lack of understanding and dismissal of my concern.

two days. I went through the drive through. I believe I got food poisoning or something else from eating your food. I have the runs really bad, I'm throwing up, and nausea. I'm going in to see the doctor today. I don't have the receipt, I think it got thrown out with the bag. However I did use my card to purchase it.. I don't have the receipt but I have a picture of the transaction. I spent $27 on our food.. Update: 4 days now and things are still going through me. I'm going to call the local health department and report it.
