Can mustard go bad?

[Eveningstar]

I was eating mini corn dogs and french fries with my family, and I was the only one that had mustard for a condiment. Half way into eating i felt very ill. I still feel pretty crappy and have waves of N* would I have V* by now are do you think it could happen later still?

mustard does not normally go bad....its mostly vinegar. they do put a sell by date on the bottles but most companies do that to protect themselves anyway. if it was the mustard or any of the food you wouldnt have felt ill right away i wouldnt think. It has to have time to get into your system from what i understand. Your mind could be playing tricks on you. how long ago did you start feeling sick?

the weird thing is,I feel fine now. It was while i was eating. Probably 10 minutes before i posted my original post. I had eaten something before that and I was fine. but I had the corn dogs with french fries and so did my family and they are fine. I was the only one that had the mustard. It was really weird.

Have you eaten much today?

[Eveningstar]

I had a sub sandwich for lunch. And then a little bit of pasta salad before dinner, and then mini corn dogs and french fries. So not too much, but not too little. It has been hot here and I am thinking its a slight case of too much heat. I feel dehydrated too. Idk. I have been feeling ok for about an hour or so now. I am thirsty but i little leary about putting anything in my stomach again.

You should drink! Especially if it has been hot! It could have just been the heat bugging you. I know that happened to me today! Good luck and I hope you feel better!
