Types of Food Poisoning

Safety regulations require restaurants, cafeterias, and other food providers to make sure that the food they are providing is safe for consumers. Improperly prepared and cooked foods can host incredibly dangerous bacteria and toxins and therefore, those in the food production and service industries must do everything possible to make sure their products are free of hazards in an attempt to prevent food poisoning.

If you or your loved one has been a victim of food poisoning, you may be entitled to compensation for your unnecessary pain and suffering. Contact the Law Offices of Vic Feazell, P.C., today at 877-948-4842 to speak with a Waco personal injury attorney about your legal rights and options.

Forms of Food Poisoning

Negligence in a restaurant, cafeteria, or grocery store can easily lead to food poisoning. Improperly washed hands and / or unclean food preparation areas can cause the following bacteria to reproduce and cause illness:

  • Salmonella
  • Shigella
  • Campylobacter
  • E. Coli

Failing to wash produce, store foods properly, or properly cook meat can also be a source of food poisoning. Exposure to harmful bacteria or toxins can cause significant health problems. Victims of food poisoning can experience a range of symptoms, including:

  • Vomiting
  • Nausea
  • Diarrhea
  • Abdominal pain

If you have experienced pain and suffering due to the negligence of a food preparation establishment or company, it is important to pursue justice.
