Ideas of questionable quality

[Kotlol]

give food poisoning a duration or something, there's no reason why taking a single bite out of an undercooked sandwich should turn you into a puke factory forever until you take chicken soup or sleep

what other people said; this is actually a good idea and can probably simply be done by giving the disease an internal tick counter

once it reaches the final stage of the disease, it gives itself x number of ticks before it self-cures

finally, no more infinite roach barf

It should be silly roaches get food poisoning, heck space mice alone. Should be immune!

But yea... I think this internal tick for just food poisoning is fine, but maybe add something so people "want to get' cured then wait it out as well. So insted of formatting also add some sort of debuff if it didn't had one.
