Don’t worry it is not what you ate
There is two reasons why you could be breaking out:
1. You just got sunburned! Though UV rays kill acne causing bacteria, after you come out of the sun they come back out to munch on the excess dead skin and oil created by the "bad burn" which will cause an out break in the areas that you have a bad burn. Like maybe your face.
2. It was hot outside and you sweated a lot. Sweat is a combination of some salty water body bi-product and oils. If your sweat stays on your body than the bacteria have a feast on the the oils and create a surplus of whiteheads. (yum!)
To make them go away:
First off don’t pick at the ones on your sunburn-because it is gross and will be very painful. Then make sure you wash your face after sweating like that, for preventive reasons. Then to get rid of it now, because you have a bad sunburn it would be best to use a light wash (nothing to potent) so your skin doesn’t get irritated and peel or flake off. Let your sunburn heal, it will take some time and maybe a few more zits but they will go away.
I hope this is okay
