Staphylococcus is not always that deadly infection spread through sex. It’s possible to get the infection from food poisoning, That is scarily true but certain things have to happen first. The type of bacterial causing this infection is called Staphylococcus aureus, or “staph” for short.
Staphylococcus can be found in the skin, hair, throats, and noses of most people and animals the main cause of skin infections and cellulitis (an infection of the underlying layers of your skin).
Staph is found in the skin, hair, noses, and throats of many people and animals. Like 25% of healthy people also have this bacteria, this is excluding those with skin, eye, nose, or throat infections. which means the percentage will be higher if they are all added together. Staph infections are nothing to really worry about unless the bacteria gets into the bloodstream or joints which is when it becomes very serious.

How can Staphylococcus be spread through Food?

Food on its own does not develop the bacteria but it can be contaminated. this occurs when someone, who has the bacteria did not wash their hands properly or maintain proper hygiene before handling food. Even in the process of preparing the meal staph can be spread: An infected person with unclean hands handles food or the equipment used to prepare it.
The bacteria can multiply very rapidly at room temperature and produce a toxin that causes sickness. Cooking the food very well may the bacteria, but not the toxin if it has already spread in the food.

Although not all food is at risk for staph, foods with high risk for staph are ones that were not kept in the refrigerator before cooking, or they’re things that are not normally cooked. These include Salad, Baked goodies such as pastries, cream pies, and chocolate eclairs, Unpasteurized milk and cheese products
Sandwiches, particularly if they’re made with processed meats

What are the Signs of Staph Infection?

You'll know pretty quickly that you're sick. Symptoms will appear within 30 minutes to 6 hours of eating. Nausea, vomiting, stomach cramps, and diarrhea are typical. The symptoms will usually only last a day and you won't be contagious.

How Do You Prevent Staph Infection?

Don’t handle food if you have a nose or eye infection, or a wound or skin infection on your hands.
Wash your hands and under your fingernails thoroughly with soap and water before preparing food.
Keep your kitchen and food-serving areas clean and sanitary.
If food is prepared more than 2 hours before serving, keep the hot foods hot (over 140 F) and the cold foods cold (under 40 F).
Refrigerate cooked food as soon as possible and store it in a wide, shallow container.
