Symptoms of botulism food poisoning include facial paralysis, drooping eyelids, blurred or double vision, difficulty speaking, slurred speech, and unreactive or fixed pupils.

An antitoxin is available, but it is only administered in hospitals.
Foods that are contaminated with this toxin do not look, smell, or taste different, and the texture of the food is not affected. Do not even try to taste foods that may contain this toxin.
If you purchased their products, do not eat them. Wrap them well in foil or plastic wrap, then put them into a secure garbage can so other people and animals can’t access them. Or you can return them to the place of purchase for a refund.

Uganda has stopped nationwide distribution of a United Nations food supplement called Super Cereal after two people died and more than 90 others came down with food poisoning.
The fortified porridge is suspected of making people in the northeastern Karamoja region ill last week.
“A big number of those were hospitalized with mental confusion and vomiting,” Ugandan Disaster Preparedness Minister Musa Ecweru said Monday.
Victims include 12 children younger than five.
The World Food Program, which sent the cereal along with sugar and oil to the Ugandan region, has not confirmed reports of the deaths. But it said it treats the situation with “extreme urgency.”
It has sent samples of the cereal to laboratories for tests.
The WFP said Super Cereal “aims to improve nutrition among pregnant or breastfeeding women by preventing stunting or treating life-threatening malnutrition.”
