How can you tell the difference between food poisoning and the flu?

The circumstances would give some clues. If you ate something suspicious or it is the flu season, you would likely know that. It is possible that the flu would be more likely to cause headache, fever, chills, and mental confusion, but severe food poisoning could give those symptoms as well. Diarrhea and vomiting are more common with food poisoning, but someone may have a 24-hour intestinal virus or a strain of the flu which starts with the same symptoms as the 24-hour virus, goes dormant, and then gives the more familiar flu symptoms within a week. More severe and life-threatening symptoms such as kidney and liver failure tend to come from food poisoning (and possibly foodborne parasites).
