Their are a number of reasons why you didn't get it and they did. If you ate the same exact thing then it's probably because you have a stronger imune system than they do. But if you ate different things then it could have only been in what they ate. I just recently ate out and me and my husband ordered the exact same thing and I got so sick that I had to be hospitalized. And my husband only had a mild case of diarhea. The only thing that we could think of was that he had a stronger imune system than I have.

Food poisoning is caused by bacteria. If many people eat the same food with the bacteria, some may get sicker than others. Some may not feel ill at all. It's because some people have a stronger immune system than others.

It happened to me with pizza. I was the only one who got sick and I thought I was dying for 4 days. I actually got sent for a hep test.
Finally they said that I have a weaker immune system and I started on acidopholus pills everyday. Much better immune system now!!!

food poisoning is caused by certain bacteria (like staphylococci).
if the bacteria was present in large quantities in the food you ate you should be in hosp by now. u didnt get bec the food contained only few microorganisms and due to your immune system u escaped.

ok,the reason is that there is a teeny little virus in the food,and you must have gotten it before,so you have an immunity,whereas you freind never got the virus,so her body is fighting it.
