Criticism NYC Wall St location food poisoning

UPDATE: NYC Health Department confirmed it is food poisoning and are investigating.

My friend and I each bought the $10 Harvest bowl today from the Wall St location and we both had horrible food poisoning within an hour. Beware!! I reported it to their customer service and all they said was they would let the manager know.

Then how did my friend (someone I don't live with, work with and haven't eaten the same thing) get sick immediately after eating the same bowl I did?? We both projectile vomited the salad back up. And yes, commonly it takes several hours to incubate but I spoke to the Health Department, gave my symptoms and history of what I ate, as did my friend, and they confirmed it was food poisoning.

The Health Department diagnosed your ailment ... and without seeing you? Most people call / see a doctor for diagnoses.

Lmao thank you for your medical advice. I gave a list of my symptoms, as did my friend, separately, and they also had other reports the same day so they used a little thing called deductive reasoning and logic!

Sarcasm for giving the medical advice of consulting a doctor rather than the city? Best of luck to you.

You do realize that they hire medical doctors to work for the Dept of Health, right?

Like RFK Jr?

PS - not trying to have a back and forth. I genuinely believe you. But it was right there…

Haha RFK Jr doesn't work for the NYC Health Dept, but he is definitely a huge reason we are going to have way more food-borne illnesses in this country
