Food Poisoning, Time Out…
Thu 09 Oct 2008
Mrs. MM and I ate something at lunch yesterday and are down with the worst case of food poisoning we have ever experienced. So I am taking a day or two “time out” from the blog to recover. Will be back soon. Delve into the archives if you are bored… :(
Part of the risks of a passionate foodie and blogger.
Get well soon…
See you all in CEBU!
October 9th, 2008I know the feeling, seems like the energy and body controls were removed from you. Take bananas, apple, and hydration fixes.
Get well soon.

October 9th, 2008Ayayay! So sorry to hear that you and Mrs MM are unwell. I know you’ve been trying to shed some pounds but not this way, no? :-) Bananas for potassium and pinasingaw na Coke work for me, I hope they do for you as well. Take care.
October 9th, 2008Hmm.. I had food poisoning yesterday!
there must be something going on..
October 9th, 2008Well my son ans I also has recuperated from the stomach flu (gastroenteritis). Good thing I took the brunt of it not my 7 year-old son. Take care MM and I know how you feel (am in the soft food diet myself).
October 9th, 2008hope you feel better soon!
October 9th, 2008Get well soon, MM and Mrs.
October 9th, 2008And what, may i ask, caused it? I hope its not the explosive clams again.
Hi Everyone, THANKS so much for all the kind comments and wishes. Things are slowly getting better. Not sure what did exactly cause it, but it wasn’t shellfish… And yes, I am down some 3 pounds in 24 hours! :)
October 9th, 2008Get well soon!
October 9th, 2008drink lots of buko juice to resupply the lost electrolytes
October 9th, 2008I don’t think I’ve ever had a very bad case of food poisoning (cast-iron stomach!), but I’ve seen others go through it for several days, and I’m sorry you’re suffering now, MM and Mrs. MM. :-( Panache is right, buko juice helps. If not, Gatorade does the trick, too. Hope you feel better soon!
October 9th, 2008get well and prayers for both of you… take care
October 9th, 2008HEY, GET WELL QUIK. :)
October 9th, 2008OPPPSS… i mean QUICK. :)
October 9th, 2008Had minor food poisoning too just the other day, but I know what got me… kesong puti! Bought it Sat, but probably waited too long to panini-grill it with my pandesal. I didn’t taste spoiled, but I guess I ate it right at the moment when it went from almost-spoiled to spoiled.
Had a chuckle when sonny_sj mentioned the explosive clams :)
October 9th, 2008get well soon MM and Mrs. MM.
October 9th, 2008Had it this tuesday. Been drinking buco juice and eating bananas.
October 9th, 2008Get well soon.
Get well soon! Slice up lots fresh ginger and steep in hot water — ginger will help soothe your stomach muscles.
October 9th, 2008get well soon……1st thought was about the explosive clams as well…..
October 9th, 2008feel better mr. and mrs. mm!
October 9th, 2008Hazards of the job?
Gute Besserung, Marketman!
October 9th, 2008get well soon!!!
October 9th, 2008I hope you both don’t suffer too much. =( Speedy recovery!
October 9th, 2008I hope you’re both feeling better, my mother has been telling me of the non-stop rain; I’m always a wee bit worried about food safety during the rainy season.
October 9th, 2008Lots of bananas, buko juice/gatorade should help get you both back to speed. Or do what my parents always dosed us with, days of congee (till you feel like rice is your enemy).
yup, hope it doesn’t get serious-serious. hope it’s something that buco juice and bananas will take care of, and that you end up fit and ready for the lechonfest. sinigang na isda, or the bisaya tinowang isda with tanglad would be superb at this time.
October 9th, 2008Get well soon Mr. and Mrs. MM
October 9th, 2008green apple will be good. Get well soon!!!
October 9th, 2008Ugh, what a bummer :(
Clear broth and Pedialyte will do the trick. If Pedialyte is difficult to find, Sprite or 7-Up work just fine.
October 10th, 2008Too bad for you guys! I hope that you both recover quickly.
October 10th, 2008sad to hear about you guys.Wishing you a speedy recovery!!
October 10th, 2008Get well soon, guys. =)
October 10th, 2008Get well soon MM and Mrs. MM.
October 10th, 2008get well soon. and hooray to instant weight loss! lol!
October 10th, 2008So sorry to hear about it. get well soon! :-)
October 10th, 2008trinam, my doctor said that too, that ginger soothes an upset stomach. And apparently, sugar, too! I remember this because it’s so seldom that doctors give sugar their vote of confidence!
October 10th, 2008I’m so sorry to hear about the food poisoning :-( Get well soon MM & Mrs MM.
October 10th, 2008Suggest you take clear fluids for 24 hours. No medication. The body has natural defences to expel the toxins and microorganisms; just help your body do its job.
October 11th, 2008Upon recovery, no dairy products for 5 days, as the microvilli int he intestine would be destoyed in the inflammation, and would take a couple of days to recover, hence you you would not have the enzymes to digest dairy products and wouild get further diarrhea.
best wishes,
quiapo
Best wishes MM! Hoping for your (and your wife’s) quick recovery!
October 11th, 2008Praying for you & your wife quick recovery. Relax & take it easy B-)
October 11th, 2008Hope you & Mrs. MM feel better soon. The sister of my co-worker also suffered from food poisoning a few days ago.
