I had a pizza about 12 hours ago. I'm a bit of a moron, young and never need to cook but I was alone today so had to do it for myself (need to learn badly apparently).
Anyway It was a thin based pepperoni one and it said 12-14 mins gas mark 7. I followed instructions but here's the really idiotic part......I didn't preheat the oven (yes i genuinely have no idea in the kitchen). So there i am baffled as to why after 20 mins It still doesn't look quite ready and so I just took it out. The meat was cooked i'm pretty sure ( no way I would've eaten It otherwise), but the cheese was sort of half melted and the base was really floppy and not crisp. I ate most of it but felt a bit ill after. Stomach discomfort went away after half an hour or so but suddenly it's come back . I can't get to sleep i'm worried I have given myself food poisoning, a bit of a nightmare for someone like me . Currently awake at 4:30 am and wondering/scared If I will be ill. I searched online and some sources say preheat for 5-15 minutes. So pizza was in there at least 6 minutes longer than stated time so I suppose it had a little while to warm up. I don't know, maybe this is entirely anxiety tummy ache and I'm just getting myself in a state.
Could I have poisoned myself and when is the latest I would be ill if i was poisoned?
Help appreciated thanks.
