Hi - Great & informative post. I have returned from travels around India and I must say I love food and street vendor -

Its a tricky one as for many people street food in India is a way of survival from people's livelihood and people's only nourishment. For a beggar to receive a fresh samosa from a vendor is a blessing. Of course hygiene is something key here and I also got very sick one day but as https://steemit.com/@travelersmemoire says when I ate in a street restaurant.

India is trying hard to try to implement hygiene and clean spaces with rubbish collections daily , more public lavorities but this will take time.

I agree if we know an establishment near us we can encourage them. For example explaining that using a dirty cloth to clean tables is one of the worst carriers of bacteria - this can be an easy education to suggest and a very simple fix - I believe dirty cloth cleaning tables was probably the cause of my illness in the cafe. I never once got sick eating with locals on the street.

A good thing to eat is fresh coconut - natural :) taken 3 weeks ago on my last trip to India

Have a great day all
