Holiday Health Watch!
This is season our schedules are filled.with christmas parties left and right. Sometimes in a day we have to attend 2 or more just to show them how grateful we are to be invited.
Just a little warning and advise to my friendly caterers, resto and food service out there. Since we know your schedule are busy in preparing food to different parties. just a friendly reminder to please handle the food so that the people who will eat will not get a stomach disorder, diarrhea, food poison and intestinal flu.
Check the food first before you serve or taste it if you are really concern with the people who will eat it.
My reason for blogging this is that my husband was invited to play his sax and flute in a party, not to mention where. Unfortunately I think he ate a contaminated food which leads to intestinal flu. He was bed rest for 3 days feeling groggy, fever, body ache, upset stomach and diarrhea. Since he on vacation until dec 25, we wasted 3 days of his vacation due to his sickness.
One thing more the talent fee he got was spent to buy medicine, fruits and hydrated water. It was something we regret.
It's also a warning for us to smell the food whenever we attend parties. Again to my friends out there who are into catering. Hope you will be concern with the people.
Happy Holidays to everyone! :-)

thank you for this reminder... infact we all do get carried away sometimes...
ReplyDeleteI hope your husband's feeling better. And yes, caterers should be mindful of the food that they serve. With hundreds of people eating their food, it can get quite nasty.
ReplyDeleteOh my, hope your husband is feeling better already. That's one of the bad parts of this holiday rush. Hope this doesn't happen to anyone again.
ReplyDeleteThis is really bad :( You should check the food first every time you try to eat something even if it really looks appetizing. Hope your husband gets feels better na. Thanks for the reminder.
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear that. Hope your husband feels better now. Thank you for sharing and the reminder.
ReplyDeleteOh my, how is he doing now? What toy said is true. Common sense tells us to check the food first, but when we're already there at the venue, sometimes we're too tired and hungry to do so! Must stay vigilant parin.
ReplyDeleteI've never heard of intestinal flu before. I guess I should be careful with what I eat because I don't want to experience those symptoms.
