He says he is sure it was my cooking but i ate the same thing and feel fine. Do you think its my cooking or a bug.? And all he had earlier today was a sandwhich I made him.Health Question & Answer
Answers:
If you're not sick then it probably wasn't your cooking. He probably just has a bug. It's that time of the year anyway. Health Question & Answer
I don't think it is YOUR cooking, considering that you are not sick. However, it is possible that he just got a bad piece of chicken or it was cooked as thoroughly as yours was. Maybe his fork or something got put in the raw chicken juice or something on accident.
Find out what else he ate for lunch. Maybe the lunch meat he had was old....? Or, it could be that he just picked up a little bug somewhere.
If it is just food poisoning he'll be miserable for a little while, but recover soon enough. Does he have a fever or any other symptoms.? If it's a stomach flu he's likely to have a fever and be complaining of aches/pains in addition to the pukes and poops.Health Question & Answer

Yes, maybe your cooking is horrible, and so he had to puke it out and he didn't want to hurt your feelings so he made it seem like he was sick but really, he just wanted the nasty taste to get out of his mouth. Health Question & Answer
If you both ate it, and only he is sick, then it wasn't the cooking. And I'm sorry, but I can't think much of a guy who would automatically accuse his wife when he gets sick.Health Question & Answer
Probably just a bug or something was wrong with the sandwich he had for lunch.? That's possible. I just don't think that he got sick from the food that you cooked and both ate, if you are still ok.Health Question & Answer
Maybe one of the pieces of chicken wasn't as well cooked as yours. Usually if its the food, he would start to feel sick within an hour of eating the food, not three hours.Health Question & Answer
I think its probably just a bug. And food poisoning doesnt usually show up until 24 hours and last 24 hours.
