More than 30 people came down with food poisoning after a Christmas party in Victoria.
One man was taken to hospital from the gathering in Portsea, while another 33 others suffered nausea, vomiting and diarrhoea.
Paramedics say only a few of the 44 party guests, which included six children, were unaffected.
Some 22 people made their way home before Ambulance Victoria officers arrived to treat 12 other at the Percy Cerutty Oval at about 8pm Thursday night.
"Some of the others who made their way home later called triple zero," paramedic team leader Brendan Keane said on Friday.
"With lots of barbecues and parties over the holidays it's important for people to take some simple food handling precautions and reduce the chances of food poisoning."
A 30-year-old man was taken to Frankston Hospital in a stable condition.
