After ten years of eating lunch at street food trucks, the inevitable finally happened -- I came down with a whopping case of food poisoning. Ate lunch at 1 PM yesterday, and my stomach placed The New American Heritage Dictionary on the EMERGENCY EJECT button at 3 PM. I then got the joy of flu-like symptoms for the next 24 hours. It was like a night of heavy drinking, except skipping the fun part and going straight to the aftermath.
Now the question is -- do I tell the city health department about it? I've eaten at this lunch truck a dozen times before without issue, and I have a nodding relationship with the friendly Middle-Eastern guy who runs it. At the same time, I definitely do not want anybody to go through what I just went through.
Tell me Reckonauts, is it worth putting in a call to the health department, or should I just let it go?
