When food manufacturers or packagers fail to product a safe product, consumers may be at risk of developing a foodborne illness. This type of negligence may lead to painful symptoms such as vomiting, dehydration, diarrhea, and abdominal pain. Recovery may be costly and in some cases, the manufacturer can be held liable for these expenses. http://www.withvic.com/practice-areas/product-liability/toxic-food-products/food-borne-illness/
