There are obvious cases of food being unsafe for consumption (ie.

In these cases, your website is kinda useless; everybody knows if a restaurant serves bad food, it will make the news.
But one time I got sick after eating out at a restaurant. My colleagues eat there all the time and have never gotten sick. But one day I did, much to the surprise of my coworkers who joined me for lunch and were completely fine. Was it the food? Did I wash my hands? Maybe I touched a door handle and put my hand in my mouth after. Maybe it was something at my desk when I got back to work? Maybe it was something in my breakfast?
I think you're just giving a soapbox to people who have no ability to determine whether or not their illness was food poisoning. And better yet, what's the purpose of just putting these claims out there for everyone to see? It makes much more sense for me to spend my time with the local health regulator, explaining my concerns to them, rather than complaining openly. Perhaps your service would be better if it was billed as a way to contact food regulators rather than a yelp-but-food-saftey.
