Whole Foods Whole Milk Fail

So I had some California Tortilla for lunch early in the day, had to visit someone in the hospital, and got home late without eating anything. Whole Foods was on the way home so I figured I'd get something small and eclectic to tide me over 'till morning. The whole Chocolate milk was on sale so I grabbed a glass jug of it. I also got some couscous and some bean dip.

Came home, had some cereal with regular milk, a cup of the whole stuff, and some of the dips with chips. Everything was fine and I went to sleep.

Then at about 3am I woke up in a severely cold sweat with my body convulsing severely. My mouth started filling with saliva, and I thought "oh sh!t, this is going to be bad." I ran to the bathroom and proceeded to make a fucking horrible mess. I took a shower, put everything in a trash bag, disinfected everything, and went back to bed.

At about 5am I woke up in even worse shape, and went to the kitchen to get some water. Soon thereafter, as if god commanded it, I ejected my previous days lunch all over my clean dishes (I was aiming for the sink). I ran to the bathrrom, and was blessed enough to come to the conclusion that food from California Tortilla is much better on the way in than on the way out. I proceeded to make a mess again, took a shower, disinfected the bathroom AND the kitchen this time, took some Pepto, and went to bed.

At 7am I woke up equally, but this time I was incredibly groggy. I tried going to the kitchen for water but was too dizzy. I went to the restroom and plopped myself on the porcelain god. I was in a state of panic at this point so I sat there for about 30min waiting....waiting, and nothing. As I was about to call it quits, the saliva built up in my mouth and the torrent continued. I recovered, disinfected everything (including two trash cans that had happened to be in the neighborhood), took a shower, had some gatorade, and went to bed.

I then woke about an hour ago and my entire body was trembling and every joint, every bone, every muscle was in SO much pain. It was so bad that I wanted to cry but was so dehydrated that tears never came.

Feeling like shit right now but after about 4 bottles of Gatorade I am feeling less shitty.

So yeah, fuck whole milk.

I love it but am not sure what happened. Maybe the milk was bad (exp. of Aug 28th), maybe my lunch was bad, maybe it was the couscous or bean dip, maybe I caught something at the hospital... who knows...
 
I also got some couscous and some bean dip.

So how can you be sure it was the milk?

Lactose intolerance would just cause severe gas and diarrhea, and the effects would be felt within an hour of drinking it.

I needed to make sure that I had a scapegoat that would keep me from thinking that I was dying. I felt my stomach feel a little "heavy" after a single cup but had ignored that.

This. It's FAR more likely that it was the "California Tortilla for lunch." The vast majority of food borne illnesses take from 9 to 11 hours to present. There are exceptions but, odds are it was the lunch.

Nonsense, Whole Foods is clearly to blame for this mess. OP, I recommend you sue for emotional distress.
 
TMI?
I saw this and immediately thought of Three Mile Island.

Although it is somewhat accurate in that it seems you disposed of "nuclear" waste.
 
more likely something you ate before. some food poisoning has a delayed reaction. makes you blame the wrong thing. more likely you ate a bad tortilla.

Why are grown humans drinking milk that's produced for baby cows?

why eat anything. peas are for the production of new peas, and potatos are storage for the plants survival. eggs were not created for the benefit of our survival but to grow new chickens.
 
If you threw up your lunch in the first iteration then it wasn't your dinner that caused it. How could your lunch get above your dinner?

The same can be said about grown man sucking on titties made for feeding infants.
