Guys, dont feed the troll, OC was clearly trolling on that one re Expat with weak stomach in DB because he lives in Tai po or wherever and he goes local so he is better than those DB expat. That was the point of his post. Don't feed him and derail this thread (once again).
I have had food poisoning a few times, once in India and once in Myanmar. In HK you sometimes gets the runs but nothing like a proper food poisoning.
The one in Myanmar, I simply could not get off the bed for a day. Was shivering and very hot alternatively, sweat like mad and couldnt eat a thing for over 24hs. Tough shit.
