Additional Information:

Bacillus cereus

The pathogen Bacillus cereus can produce toxins. In this case, its intake usually leads to sudden nausea and vomiting or diarrhea and abdominal cramps within a few hours. The symptoms usually subside on their own within a day. Babies, small children and the elderly in particular can develop more severe illnesses. Anyone who has eaten this food and develops severe or persistent symptoms should seek medical attention and report possible Bacillus cereus poisoning. It makes no sense to seek preventive medical treatment without symptoms.
