Best Answer

People get food poisoning because they eat something which is contaminated or poisoned. People usually get food poisoning from high risk foods such as poultry, meat, dairy products, eggs, etc.

Because when the food gets warm, the microbes in it multiply quickly. And these microbes release toxins.

But if you heat the food completely and get it hot enough, the microbes in the food die and therefore produce no more toxins.
