I have no problem ordering a very rare steak in an upscale reputable restaurant. But when I go to a BBQ I won't touch it. And when it is some other type of meat I watch very carefully.

Yep, being a vegetarian can be a challenge in some countries. But in some places, it's really good.<strong>-Trudy-</strong> It's still amazing how many people are scared of street food. Good local food is safer than a lot of restaurants anywhere.<strong>-Tim-</strong> Great to hear back from you Tim! And, it's also great to hear how you got on in The Philippines. I think Pinoy street food is one of the hidden secrets of Asia!In many developed countries food is prepared with so much hygiene, I don't think a human hand has ever touched it!Also great to hear you are heading back, I hope some of this website can help you in finding your own home too. -Nomadic Chick- :) Good food needs no encouragement!

Just returned to the States from our PI trip; Palawan, Cebu, Bohol and Luzon. We too ditched the tourist areas and spent time with the local people. Loved the people in Palawan and miss the street food in PI. I find it difficult to express to people here how good the street food is. I too never got sick from it and believe it's healthier than the government approved food we get here. We'll be heading back to PI in a few months to make it our permanent home although we haven't decided on a specific spot yet. We only know we want to be there. Hello again.

Like you, I eat a lot of food from market stalls where I travel, and as far as I know, haven't gotten sick from it. The food looks good. Oh gosh, I never eat food at malls anywhere.
