Wow....I've never heard of cantaloupes being infected with salmonella....odd..... anyway

If you start getting sick to your stomach and feel like you want to vomit within the next 8-12 hours....then yeah....you got it.

Salmonella will usually take effect on your body within 12 hours upon entering your body...

If you throw up....and end up with diarrhea, dont worry...just let it run its course...you will be fine in about 24-36 hours.

I know.....it sucks.......but if you are a healthy young individual, you should be fine, even if you get an infection...they dont last long. Ive had it before.....it sucks, but you'll be alright

Salmonella is a type of food poising, it usually takes effect within the first 48 hrs.
