RE: ADSactly Awareness - Street Sold Food Might Be Harming You
Street Foods is un healthy in many ways, in fact, sometimes its a threat to one's health. With due respect to our fellow street food vendor but I am simply telling the truth that their engridients esp the oil were repeatedly used all throughout the week or sometimes even months and this is very cancerous. The microbial count present to the food is too much since it is expose to every insects on the street plus the smoke coming from the vehicles and etc.
It is better to cook food at home, it is far more healthy and safe.
My aunt who used to live in China came across a street vendor selling these pancakes for really cheap. She couldn't pass on such a deal and bought some. Turns out the reason it was so cheap was because the oil they used to cook with was actually recycled sewage oil. Disgusting. Eat at your own risk.
yes be very careful of street food and think high quality and look at the stuff for freshness
The only way to be truly safe is to prepare and cook your own homegrown fruits, vegetables, and livestock. So move to the country and get some land.
Amen to that!
Thank you for your blog @adsactly. It's a health awareness for everyone who are fond of eating street foods. It doesn't give us benefit to our heath but a destruction. I have an experience with that since my niece was sometime hospitalized due to typhoid fever bec of eating too much bbq at the street that was not cook properlyproperly. A reminder to all parents to give their children awareness about this matter.
@adsactly, great and valid points you have made.
While it might not be possible to eliminate the possibility of eating out totally, i think its best to consider some factors you have highlighted before taking to eating at a particular restaurant although compromise on personal hygiene can't be completely ruled out and with time, we can reduce to the barest minimum the issue of eating out.
Thank You
Yes, it is a gradual process..we can reduce until we can stop..
