Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Have you ever gotten sick on something, then you won’t touch it ever again.

Sticky buns
When I was a teenager, dad brought some home from the local bake shop (remember them?).
I got sick after eating one, and it was probably not because of them, but a stomach bug, but I didn't eat them for years.

Chicken Pot Pie....got food poisoning from one. Never had another.

My mother opened and served us canned tamales when I was in about 1st grade.

She and I both got sick as a dog.

Austex brand.

I wouldn't touch any tamale for about 35 years.

Now I eat some good, homemade tamales, but for those years they were nauseating to even think about.

Chocolate chips. Ate a handful when treating a concrete slab in cold weather with a gas space heater. Got carbon monoxide sick and up came the chocolate chips. Couldn't eat them for at least 3 weeks - fortunately.

Tequila makes you howl at the moon... Had so much tequila in Mex once, my friends convinced the waiter that every time I ordered another to just bring a shot glass of water. I was so far gone, I didn't know the difference.

Nopo and I've gotten dang blasted wasted and sick in my yute. Couple of food poisoning incidents as well. Hasn't scared me off at all.

Golden Corral.

Mother in law had the whole family out and bought our meals. Food tasted okay, as good as can be expected from such an establishment anyway. First clue was when I went to take a piss and had to use a stall due to the urinals all being occupied. I zipped up and turn around to find the entire stall door painted in dried puke, bad sign.

When we made it home the wife and I were on a 10 minute rotation. One of us sit on the only toilet in our tiny one bathroom house while the other sat on the couch puking into the trash can. About 10 minutes and it would be time to switch places. Drink a quart of water to keep from getting dehydrated and start over.

It was so bad we had to get someone to come get the baby and keep him for a couple days as we could barely care for ourselves let alone an infant.

Never again will I step foot in that feed yard.

🤣 Those were the ones wrapped in toilet paper instead of corn husk.

I still eat those every once in a while. They are OK, but not nearly as good as homemade tamales.

The only other “store bought” tamales I’ll eat are the Pedro’s frozen ones made in Lubbock.
If your ever driving through Lubbock, they have a to go window at their Tamale Factory. You can get them hot and fresh there. Damn Good Tamales!!! If I’m going through there on the way to NM or CO, I always stop the and get some to eat on the road.

Luckily, I’ve never had a bad Tamale. They are definitely my favorite Mexican Food. 🤠

Nothing. I’m not too sharp

All those right there were the Master Keys to teenage girls belt buckles, zippers, and panties.

In 1971 I drank a 5th of gin with only 12 oz of 7up in an afternoon. Got really sick . . . imagine that. Even today, if I even SMELL gin, my stomach flips.

My mother used to make a side dish made with tomato soup, cottage cheese and other stuff (can't guess what else). I was up all night sitting on the toilet with a garbage can for the vomit in front of me. I was probably 14 or 15 and had had it before. I assume I had the flu, but that really tasted bad coming back up that night.

Haven't touched either since.

Jack Daniel's for me too. About 30 years ago, a few buddies and I went moonlight bowling. You could win some money If you got a strike on a rack with a colored head pin.

My one buddy and I each drained a pint of J. D. in about 10 minutes before we left. Halfway through the 2nd game, The whiskey kicked in......I missed my lane once and Joe missed twice........They told us we couldn't
bowl anymore so we decided to shoot some pool.

The management wasn't enthused when, after a questionable shot, we decided to settle the little disagreement by fencing with the pool cues.

We were no longer allowed in that particular establishment.

To this day, Just the smell of Jack Daniel's gives me the dry heaves.

You have to skin & cook them before you bite them. They're pretty bad raw.

Its a sign of weakness to quit.



I really dont like Brussels Sprouts.



I still eats em.

Polish sausage for the longest time. Got sick after eating it as a 10 yr old., and couldn't touch the stuff for 20 years.

Jack Daniels. Hard weekend on the stuff partying in Korea. Couldn't smell it for years without gagging. Only been the last 10 or so that it has come back into the liquor cabinet fold.

Soju. Way too many weekends with the guys and a few "battalion bottles" of that crap. Hadn't touched it since I left Korea until a year or so ago when the old lady wanted to go to a Korean restaurant nearby. Tried it for the first time in 37 years. Nope.

Oysters. Loved raw oysters. Until New Orleans, and I stupidly tried an oyster shooter at the urging of the W's friend. Blecchhh. Turned me off of oysters for a while.

Seagrams VO! My ex-wifes best friend came over the night we split up. She brought a half gallon of that stuff! The night was one to remember but unfortunately, I can't! However, I do remember being violently ill. I haven't touched a drop of that stuff since and that was 40 years ago! Good thread! thanks for posting!

Lil Debbie Star Crunch at grandparents as a kid. Probably ate the whole box in 12 hours. 40 years later, still a no-go!

Stewed tomatoes.

Drive by Burger King today, made me think of this. They were my favorite burger until I got sick after eating one.
