RE: ADSactly Awareness - Street Sold Food Might Be Harming You
There's no doubt that a lot of street foods are delicious - even more delicious than what's sold in restaurants. Also, street foods are cheap! So who doesn't like cheap, delicious food? 😆
But as consumers, we should use our senses to determine if the street food is worth the try. Look at where the cart's situated, the placement of foods and their condiments (if there are any), where the foods are placed, and their permit (usually hanged on the stall's roof or posted on a surface). Also, you can usually tell something's wrong on the first bite! So stop chewing and look at what you're eating.
Also, nowadays, health inspectors are more stern on imposing proper food prep and hygiene, so I guess we should trust on that. 😉
Sorry I just got a lot to say about this matter. I just love street food so much! But I always eat with precaution.
So, after what's said and done, and you decide to eat, just tell yourself: "BACTERIA'S STRONG, BUT I AM STRONGER."🤣
👍 Agreed
I love street food too! I don't eat much of it since there's not much here in the US. But in Hong Kong and China..wow! Getting to sample the local cuisine...so tasty and cheap!
Be careful...choosing tasty over healthy may not be the best decision. You can reduce it ..if you can not stop totally..
