Can you throw up a food you ate the night before?
Food poisoning can, in some cases, make you sick several days (or even weeks) later, but most food poisoning affects you within 4-6 hours of eating tainted food.

About Food Poisoning
Food poisoning is what occurs when people swallow food or water contaminated with parasites, bacteria, viruses or other toxins. People can get food poisoning at restaurants, home, on picnics, even at the school cafeteria. Food poisoning rarely results in anything more serious than a few days illness. The best way to avoid food poisoning is to make sure you don't eat undercooked meat, poultry, or eggs.
About Food
Food is fuel, take in as many calories as you burn and food will be good to you.
About Poisoning
Before we get into the details of poisoning – if you or anyone you know has ingested a poison, please call poison control (1-800-222-1222) and get to the emergency room as soon as possible. The severe signs of poisoning include: nausea, vomiting, pain, trouble breathing, seizure, confusion and abnormal skin color. Poison is anything ingested that injures or kills by the way its chemical process reacts with the body. Poisons can be drunk, eaten, absorbed through the skin, inhaled or injected.
