Can you get food poisoning from a Pot Noodle? My brother had one last night and he is really sick today

I'd be very surprised if some dried noodles could make somebody that sick

I wouldn't have thought so, maybe he picked it up from not washing his hands or touching something dodgy

Norovirus?

It might have disagreed with him. Not food poisoning though.

Unlikely.

Sensitivity to MSG? Otherwise Noro is doing the rounds...

I thought about norovirus, but he's not sick enough for that. Could be a sensitivy to MSG as we/he never eat pot noodles 😟

I have just had a chicken and mushroom pot noodle and I've just experienced hot and cold flushes and vomiting when trying to sleep.
I know bird flu is going around the chickens causing food poisoning the chickens affected are distributed to kfc tgi Friday and nandos but didn't think pot noodles were affected

There’s no chicken in those pot noodles 🤣

I know its flavouring otherwise it wouldn't say chicken and mushroom but doesn't explain why people are getting ill

they’re labelled as being suitable for vegetarians - there’s definitely no bird flu in it!
