Of course, all that is good advice, but..... Initially I kept away from street vendors, missing out on some tasty tucker, but still suffered stomach upsets. The reality is that wherever you go, there are more bugs than we are used to in the west, maybe we have become overprotected! Take some anti-diarrhoea medication with you, and of course make sure you always carry plenty of tissues. Stay long enough and you begin to build up some natural protection!
