[quote=LEMONCACTUS,270362]Yes, agree with most of this. Don't drink the tap water unless it's been boiled. Like Apault I use it to clean my teeth, for hot drinks and for washing fruit and veg. Bottled water and/or soft and/or fizzy drinks are available everywhere and are cheap. The Chinese absolutely DO eat fruit and veg with the skins on: eg: apples, pears, plums, cucumbers, aubergine (egg plant) etc and so do I. If you're in doubt, then peel it. I do notice some Chinese peel grapes! As with DaveC I've very rarely been ill in China as a result of food I've bought. In fact only 1 time that I can recall and I've been here for 3 years. Of course, it may just be that my stomach's pretty tough :) Apault's advice is sound, bring some over-the-counter medication just in case. Enjoy your trip.[/quote]
