I had a few bouts similar to this after drinking hot green tea and
miso soup. I would doubt there was any "germs" in the tea, that stuff
was super heated. I burned my mouth once when I didn't notice the
waitress had filled my mug.

Anyway, someone here concluded that it may have been the hot liquids
that were the cause. I don't recall if I had salad on either occasion.
