1. I would like to know about the usage of the compound word "Food poisoning" in a sentence.

2. What does half-past seven mean? Is it 6:30 or 7:30

Salmonella is an example of food poisoning.
It is thirty minutes after seven.

A couple of examples from the Web.

You might suspect food poisoning if several people who have eaten the same thing develop similar symptoms, or if a child gets sick without being exposed to anyone else who is sick.

Food poisoning is a common, usually mild, but sometimes deadly illness.
