Some of the common symptoms of "fried rice syndrome" are vomiting and diarrhoea. In most, these symptoms usually reside for about 24 hours.

There is a high chance that, when symptoms of "fried rice syndrome" arise, people will naturally attribute it to gastrointestinal issues. This is because the symptoms of both are extremely similar.
