Can you get food poisoning from couscous?
Asked by Wiki User
You can get "Food Poisoning" from just about anything that you eat, its a very broad term used by hospitals and the CDC (Center of Disease Control) to define an illness suffered after eating food.
Non-acidic foods are more commonly the culprit, if not left and prepared in optimal conditions, they can and will often grow bacteria, or have parasites and viruses transfered from the preparer or from the region which the food originated.
Its recommended you see a doctor if you have any symptoms of food poisoning, because it can potentially be fatal, your doctor can assess the danger and treatment, and at the very least, you will need a doctors note to justify taking days off of work, or away from school.
