Default The next time you're at WalMart

Do NOT buy the Turkey Meatloaf with Cranberry Glaze on it from the meat department. (it was in the same display case as the hamburgers of questionable origin, and right next to the beef meatloaf made by the same company that created the Turkey Meatloaf...guess we'll be returning that package of meatloaf tomorrow afternoon. I sure wont be eating it)

We bought it, and consumed it for dinner. I am not enjoying seeing a reappearance of it at 4am. (well, I wasnt sleeping anyways)

I feel like that guy in the Alien (Aliens?) movie just before the Alient Monster crawled it's way out of the guy's stomach the hard way. Well, maybe not that bad, maybe more like the passengers in the movie Airplane!

Hopefully I wont have to be sick any more...I dont like the broken ribcage feeling that the muscle spasms in my ribs give me. (argh! spasticity sucks!!!! and it sucks even more when you're throwing up!)

I'm assuming that this is food poisoning and not some nasty stomach flu. I dont want the stomach flu. I'm going on a vacation this weekend and dont want to be recovering from my stomach trying to turn itself inside out)


and I apologize to anyone who thinks this is TMI.


Rumack: What was it we had for dinner tonight?
Elaine Dickinson: Well, we had a choice of steak or fish.
Rumack: Yes, yes, I remember, I had lasagna.

Hope you feel better soon. I don't/won't shop at WalMart so I guess I'm safe.

Aw, hope you feel better soon.
I buy food there, but not the meat (except the pre-cooked bacon).

We try to get most of that from the meat market down the street. The rest, we get with gift cards from dh's work from another market.

You have any Pepto or milk of magnesia? That might help.

sorry to hear about your tummy-ache from the meatloaf ... (had the same experience with a 'Grandma's Meatloaf' from Festival .. not good there either!)

hope you are feeling better ... saltine crackers or Ritz will help settle your tummy!

We've got a terrible situation going on up here right now, with "voluntary" meat recalls on Maple Leaf Foods products due to an outbreak of "Listeriosis". There have already been 4 deaths, and several sick people . . . so people are very afraid at the moment.

"Two food samples tested positive for the listeria strain linked to the outbreak while a third showed a "slight variance'' health officials said. Further test results are expected this week as the investigation proceeds."

"Maple Leaf will expand its recall to include all products produced at the plant as a precaution, McCain said today. Last week, the food processor recalled 23 meat products after the infection was discovered."

"The expanded recall will involve more than 200 products produced by Maple Leaf, Health Minister Tony Clement said this evening in a news briefing. Clement said the number of cases of listeriosis is expected to rise because the incubation period for the bacteria can be as long as 70 days."
