argh!

I just bit into a severely undercooked McNugget. I spit it out and didn't swallow any of it, but am I going to get food poisoning now?

I'm in a bit of a panic here.

No, but the taste is never going to get out of your mouth.

Bah! Sorry to hear it.

No, you're not going to get food poisoning. Yuck, though. Rinse your mouth.

So...

Now I hope you'll stop going to McDonalds?

I dont think you'll get food poisoning. I know you said you only go there a couple times a year, but even so, I'd tell them.

bad food handling/cooking practices, to be sure

I had mushy salmon at a restaurant about six months ago, and I didn't get sick. Have faith in your stomach acid.

If it'll sooth your mind, have a shot of something strong, vodka or jaeger, just to help with the internal disinfection. The odds of that small exposure having enough of a bacteria load to overwhelm a competent immune system are ...I wouldn't bet on being able to grow some bad bacteria in culture from swabbing your mouth, even IF that particular piece was actually infected. Ok? But have the drink anyway - it'll at least get the taste out.
