Best Answer

If the food may have contained (a lot of) food poisoning bacteria, you would usually have noticed 30 minutes to 2 hours after eating it (and be horribly sick for a day or two), however sometimes it does take 24 hours to notice (and you may vomit randomly for the next week or so).

If you think you're allergic to a certain food, you should notice a reaction within 1 second to 2-3 hours of eating it (quickly for tongue swelling up type reactions, slower for itchy rash type reactions).

If you think you have an 'intolerance' to certain foodstuffs, this is more difficult to acertain; you'll probably notice some sort of reaction within 12 hours of eating the food in question.
