I use McDonalds as a detox after a night out, or a few hard days at work... it has the same effect on me as a laxative... without fail...! :/
Im just curious but, did you consider that perhaps you might have caught something from the pet store? If they deal in foreign animals thats always a risk factor.
Either way KFC is notorious for its poor hygiene, its practically a cultural stereotype like with kebab shops. But I can understand your reaction if you dont usually eat fast food. When I started working out & losing weight I weened myself off anything greasy. After a month or so when I tried some fries they made me feel like crap.
If you have a healthy diet then you would have a low bacteria count in your colon but as sson as you introduce any foods with large quantities of high energy molecules like like lipids & carbs then they go nuts & explode into huge numbers, usually resulting in a huge gas output as a biproduct, hence any bloating & the runs.
The last food that ever gave me the squirts oddly enough was subway, though its never happened again.

My local KFC has never been anything other than finger lickin' good.
The McDonalds however, puts the Meat in Meatiocre.

After botched surgery (woo socialised medicine!) I developed a real sensitivity to any amount of fat/oil for about a year, but that was more a "collapse and go into shock as your stomach tries to dissolve itself" kind of experience than blowing chunks.
KFC though...I could never stand that even before, so oily.

I can eat fast food easily, but NEVER chicken in any form, especially kfc. Fast food joints just seem to be bad at cooking chicken. Biting into a chicken leg when theres still blood? Yeah, if that was steak that'd be fine but as soon as I saw blood in the chicken I knew that was a bad sign.
I guess I'm kinda lucky, I eat a lot of fast food and have never had food poisoning. I go to McDonalds or Subway every time I'm at college for food, I've even spent a couple of months eating sandwiches from supermarkets (Which everyone tells me gives you food poisoning)
I've only had KFC once, due to it not being near to where I live. It was fine, service was pretty good it tasted great and was very filling for its price (I also didn't get the lethargic feeling I get after a large McDonalds meal)
Though I do get stomach pains if I eat raw vegetables... I guess I'm used to all my food being covered in oil, salt and/or gravy...

I think KFC is wrank in general. I don't mind some fried chicken with herb and spices in breadcrumb/batter, but it better have some damn flavour to it. I personally find KFC to be too sloppy - its chicken is soaked in grease every time. Not nice.
McDonalds chicken is better; while it is pumped with water at least they don't drown it in oil. If I ever find myself at KFC with friends I usually just pick up some popcorn chicken as it's the most tasty and least greasy of all their chicken. but I prefer oven-baked, or fried in healthy oils, etc.
The only "greasy" fast food I like is a take away - Indian curries. Although the types of curry I order are the British variants.
Rule of thumb, no harm in trying something new. In fact I take that as a law that if I haven't tried it I can't judge. But if it ain't for you, nobody's forcing you to eat it. As for making you violently ill; complain and get compensation if it troubled you that much. You will find it wasn't the companies fault but the chefs that this happened. What you described couldn't have been a normal reaction to any kind of food unless it was poisoned; and by poisoned I mean contaminated.

Having been in this situation quite a few times ( I get violently sick from stress), drink as much as you can and then immediately throw it up.
The sooner your stomach is clear, the sooner you'll get better and the water helps. If it's being problematic, mix in one spoon of salt and one spoon of sugar. One helps it come up, the other helps when it comes up.
Just drink, blow chunks and lie down in a place that's chilled, dark and quiet. Oversensitivity is a bugger in these situations.
I'd go with the people above though - Salmonella from being near the parrots is as likely as the KFC being undercooked.
Oh, and watch for belching...that means there's still stuff wanting to come up.

Nah, mild food poisoning - from urine/fecal matter - is no real worse than a bad hangover. Often the two are so similar as to be indistinguishable.Midgeamoo said:

Quick question. Where do you live? I'm hoping stateside but I can't decipher from your post.idarkphoenixi said:
Amused. Such a sadist :')
But food poisoning from the KFC that fast? Nah, somethin else you ate or did.
Never had an issue with it, though too much grease makes my gut hurt.
Look on the bright side, you probably lost a couple pounds.
Edity edity edit: If water makes your throw up again don't drink it, tap water can be very harsh on your stomach if it's ina bad way. Mix in some sugar and sip it at, or try drink something lightly carbonated like some fruit flavoured water or something. Always works for me, that or lucozade.

My doctor reccomends flat coke (either leave it or add a spoon of sugar to kill the carbonation). Says its as good as those powders they sell that replenish the salts and sugars your body loses with diarrhea but only a fraction of the priceSkarKrow said:
Yeah exactly, it's much better than water. I always have some Lucozade or something when I'm ill, anything that gets sugar in your system is good. Not sure whether carbonation makes a difference, or it doesnt for me at least.Quellist said:
I work at McDonalds so I usually have to eat what we make there. It usually isn't that bad and we are pretty clean there. The only place for fast food I won't eat at all is Burger King. God, smells like you rubbed your hand under a fat guy's armpit.
