That could be difficult to link a foodborne illness to the onset of chicken pox. It would depend on the type of foodborne illness to relate the onset period of that illness to the exposure and onset of chicken pox. Symptom onset of foodborne illnesses vary a lot. For chicken pox, it is around 2 weeks.

According to the CDC, the chicken pox virus is primarily transmitted via the respiratory tract by inhaling aerosols from skin lesions. It can also be transmitted through direct contact. They go on to say that the virus enters the host through the respiratory tract or the conjunctiva. The Web MD site indicates it could be transmitted through the sharing of food or drink. I could not find anything that indicated ingesting the virus as a mode of transmission.
