Vomiting is a status affliction caused by eating

After a while, it will cause you to become confused, then stunned, and finally pass out and lose 40 points of nutrition. The final act of vomiting actually cures food poisoning, though you cannot count on vomiting before you die: vomiting takes 14 turns, while food poisoning will kill you in 10 + 1d9 turns.

A few uses of a unicorn horn, casting cure sickness,[1] or a eucalyptus leaf will cure the condition (and let you keep the nutrition).
