Made some random meat dish a long time ago that happened to have anise in it. Bad times ensued. Pretty sure the meat was the issue, but for some reason my body decided to blame it all on the anise. Couldn't stomach even a whiff of that stuff for nearly a decade.

I've only had problems at poorly ran Italian restaurants

They all end up getting shut down by me within a year of me getting sick

Don't know why this is. Have never gotten sick from sushi/seafood restaurants. Never got sick from a steakhouse

Just Italian

Edit:

Happened 3 times since we used to eat at a ton of different Italian restaurants growing up

Oooof my husband and I for sure had something on May long weekend last year. We think our jar of chopped garlic was the culprit. We've never purchased it again. He had made a really nice pasta for dinner and there was a ton of garlic in it. I ended up eating an hour before he did. I was in the washroom, dying from both ends about an hour before he came into the washroom to also die. Put us off pasta for a long time too. Oh and yeah simultaneously shitting and barfing takes a lot out of you, but it's being done all that and ending up dehydrated that really hurts

And sometimes it's completely obvious.

If I usually eat in and never get food poisoning, then I splurge and get takeout, then six hours later I'm puking my guts out... do you really think it's that sandwich I made myself a week ago that's causing the problem?
