A furuncle is a boil, typically caused by staphylococcal infection. Thus, it can be deduced that the food poisoning is due to staphylococcus aureus, which forms a heat stabile enterotoxin not destroyed by cooking. Ingestion of the preformed enterotoxin causes vomiting.
i_hate_it_hereOh, i guess I thought the preformed toxin would lead to hella diarrhea and then shock... silly me+
cheesetouchI think the right answer might be more related to letting a meatloaf with raw hamburger sit for 12 hours at room temp. E coli the hamburger toxin! (although that's associated with uncooked meat and 350 for an hr should be plenty of time to cook it unless it's real thicc)+
