How long for food poisoning to kick in?

    I wouldn't take imodium because the idea the body has with the sh*ts is to get rid of all the bad stuff that comes with food poisoning. Imodium means you are keeping it in your system longer.

    Better out than in.

    Very succinctly put!

    Feels awful for sure, but if its kept in you I bet it could make you sicker (if thats even possible).

    if you chuck it up OP, you will feel far better once its all out of you, just hydrate and try not to die :pac:

    Drink some Tequila if you can't find any poitín. That chicken looks like it's still clucking. Yock. Hope your tummy manages to digest it. Keep lots of fluids on hand and attend the doctor if you need to. Bleurgh.

    Got food poisoning from chicken at a bbq last year, took two days to kick in and a week in hospital to cure it.
    Wouldnt wish it on anyone! I have my fingers crossed for you OP!

    An empty house is better than a bad lodger.

    I flash fry chicken in a wok at a high heat and sometimes it looks a bit raw in the centre. Never had any problems.

    Minimum incubation time for some of the food poisoning bugs is 6 hours, if it hits in that time frame you will be extremely sick, most likely vomiting and extreme diarrhea. I had it happen once and spent two days in extreme agony with almost unstoppable vomiting and diarrhea. Food safety is of the utmost importance to any business in the food or hospitality industry and should never be overlooked. Best of luck OP.

    is the OP dead ?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 357 ✭✭makingmecrazy


    I've had it twice. First time (from raw chicken in a Chinese!), it took about 26 hours to kick in. Awkward as fcuk because I was on a night out with a friend who I'd eaten with the day before. Hadn't even finished our first drink when we were both running to the bathroom.

    Second time, it kicked in after about 6 hours (if I'm correct on what food caused it).

    You might be fine if the chicken was quite fresh. Just in case, have immodium, motilium, dioralyte and loo roll ready.

    Almost the exact same thing here. Shared some small dishes at lunch with a friend. We were living in the same house at the time. The next day(practically 24 hours down to the minute)we both got ill. Extremely ill. Just as well we had two loos in the house.

    I feel very sorry for the OP. Hopefully he'll be ok.

    Too many Chinese take aways in Ireland serve up totally rubbish food and we just keep coming back for more. I really hope the place the OP got his food from will be shut down....permanently.

    In fairness, there is no proof he got sick at all :)

    UPDATE: So, it happened :(

    Was out of work today which cost me a pretty penny (self employed) but not the total "I want to die" situation.

    Meeting with the FSAI tomorrow and they are going to send the piece I took a pic of to the labs.

    Pack of b*stards.

    You'd like to give them the scutters and see how they like it.

    Sorry, I looked at the picture but I seem to be the only person on this thread that doesn't know what we're talking about. Are you saying it's not chicken? What do you think it is?

    It's raw in the middle. If you look at it you can see a line of white on the outside, where it's cooked, and then pink translucent rawness inside that.

    Poor John :(


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,383 ✭✭✭Miss Demeanour


    Normally the next morning.
    I was out one night.....had three bottles of wine and one chicken wing that I think was half cooked.
    The sickness that chicken wing caused the next day!!!!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 14,960 ✭✭✭✭JupiterKid


    Sorry to read that you did get sick OP. You did the right thing reporting the place to the FSAI. Hopefully they'll learn a lesson the hard way.

    Check out my thread on how Chinese eateries here in Ireland are sub-par when it comes to food.:pac:

    Would you not know by eating it that it was raw or that it tasted off, or does it still taste the same?
