Food poisoning?

[mummybunny6]

I ate half a pot of yogurt yesterday afternoon. It was open so I smelt it & it was fine. Also tasted fine as well. It was only when I removed the lid fully (after eating nearly all of it) that I noticed mold (Green) on it!!!! I really thought it'd be ok as it tasted fine, not bitter or anything. But, an hour later I started getting really bad tummy pains and another 30 minutes after the pains started I was sick twice. I haven't had the runs, but really smelly trumps!!! (((embarrasing!!))) Even now, over 24 hrs later I've still got a mild tummy ache. Is it the yogurt or just a coincidence? Someone I know said you can't get food poisoning from yogurt. TIA

not from yoghurt, certainly but deffo from the mould spores that grow on it...a fine distinction I agree.

was it one of those Activia yoghurts?? when ever ive eaten those i get awful stomach ache!

Sounds like the mould is passing through - literally - and has produced some additiional gas on the way.

Should be OK by tomorrow, if not, make an appt, with your GP.

a little mould is unlikely to make you that ill especially since you obviously didnt eat much or any lumps...look at blue cheese...

[woofgang]

that depends on the mould...some can kill!

Note to self-check all food for being spoiled thoroughly and throw away if in doubt.
Food poisoning can and often kills.
