Man Says Food Found In Dumpster “Not As Good As It Looked”

PHILADELPHIA, PA- A Philadelphia man spent the night in an area hospital recovering from dehydration as the result of vomiting and uncontrolled defecation.

Phil Navaro, of North Philadelphia, said the emesis began about one hour after eating the remains of a cheese steak he discovered in a dumpster outside of his apartment complex.

“It was practically untouched…just nibbled on one end a little. I guess it wasn’t as good as it looked. You never know about these things until it’s too late,” Navaro said while leaving the emergency room of Temple University Hospital.

Navaro was released by hospital physicians after receiving two liters of IV fluid and a tetanus shot.
