Yes it is still possible to get food poisoning even from cooked food.

Although cooking food kills off most bacteria from the food there still could be some toxins in the food that can lead to food poisoning.

Even fully cooked food can sometimes cause food poisoning especially if the food is no good and has gone bad.

Food such as meat that is not cooked all the way through to a high enough temperature can also cause food poisoning because the bacteria may still be in the food.

So make sure you're cooking the food all the way through so that the bacteria is killed in the food.

However some people still have gotten sick and gotten food poisoning after eating foods that were fully cooked so it's possible.

I once got food poisoning after eating cooked hot dogs when I was a kid.

It turns out they had a recall on those brand of hot dogs in those years and it had made more than one person sick.
