DS eaten rancid ham

Just been out for lunch - 9 yo complained about his ham sandwich but I thought he was just being fussy and told him to eat it which he did - I eventually took a bite and it was totally rancid. Restaurant said ham was in date but it had clearly turned in the heat. Urgh, feel like a terrible mother, how likely is my son to be ill do you think? Anything I can do other than wait it out... off on hols first thing Wednesday, could really do without a bout of food poisoning 🙁

How did the restaurant rectify it? Because if they cause food poisoning then I’d be informing environmental health.

He might be ok, stomach acid takes care of some very nasty bugs, but there’s nowt to do but wait and see.

Restaurant were pretty good really - mortified - asked me to let them know if DS becomes ill so they can follow necessary procedures. Though I'm astounded whoever prepared the sandwich couldn't smell that the ham was off

Next time listen to your kid and take a bite the first time they complain
