A guest at a wedding reception revealed the four-course menus that left more than 100 invitees terribly ill, with 80 people being admitted to hospital.
Aranza Rodríguez attended the ceremony Saturday night in the central city of Cuernavaca, Mexico, and was rushed to a Red Cross hospital where she was treated for bacterial infection.
Rodríguez told Mexican newspaper Proceso that she was a guest of the groom, Fernando, whose wedding party started around 4pm with dinner set to be served at 6pm.
She recalled arriving to wedding venue between 8pm and 9pm and noticing that many of the guests were experiencing 'aggravated symptoms' that included headaches, stomach pain, vomit and diarrhea.
Despite the unsettling scene, Rodríguez placed her meal order and dined at about 10pm as ambulances started to arrive.

Rodríguez recalled being served wild mushrooms with goat cheese and tomato coulis as the appetizer.
For her main course dish, she was served chicken breast stuffed with spinach, tarragon and sweet potato puree as well as winter asparagus. She said male guests were served a different selection of food items, which included meat with a whiskey sauce for the main course.
While she is not sure which of the meals made her sick, she remembers the wild mushrooms had the aftertaste of a 'very strong chemical'. She recalls the same smell after she was sick.
