In my place, in schools, I notice many sell street foods like fish bowls and chicken feet. I never tried to eat street foods . They seem not safe to eat. Most sellers position themselves near the road. When vehicles pass, dust will become Eat All You Can. The students never care. Do you allow your kids to eat street foods? The sellers earn better, but they should not be allowed to sell near schools. The daughter of my neighbor died after eating street food named cassava delight. The doctor said the food was infected by bad bacteria. The seller could benefit , they only think of their own advantage.
This is why it is always better to pack food for any outing. Sometimes the hygienic condition of some foods environment

Truth be told, most of these food sold in streets are not to be trusted. In some cases the environment used in cooking the food is no where near safe.

Yes, you are right, we better pack our own foods to be sure of our safety, but kids and teens dislike it. They want to experiment which sometimes proved wrong.

There are basic requirements and food must be placed in designated areas that meet all the parameters more especially if it is ready to eat food.It is not advised to eat food or buy food from unknown sources with no proven record of following food hygien standards at each stage of food preperation.Ensure that you buy food that is nicely covered and preferably warm as you are eating it.

@Carson20t , yes, you are so right, those sellers must follow the protocol for where to display their foods not just anywhere where dust soars anywhere in the road and landing to the uncovered street foods. It is so unsafe.

Yes when food has a good hygiene protocol then you may likely not get any bacteria or food poisoning,thewn alot more of hygien standards like covering the food.The sellers also must be clean and be having access to clean and safe sanitary facilities or toilets.

We need to be extra careful for medicine prices are soaring like crazy.

Yes we should expect the rise in major commodities because of the high inflation where the major power house economies have collapsed coupled with other factors such as the covid and ukraine russia war that has contrib uted to this total melt down in the economy which is trckling down to countries that have less purchase power to be abject poverty.

That is why we cannot blame these street food vendors for they are also looking for the means to survive, however, they should protect the foods by covering or putting them once cooked in closed plastic wares.

Street food is not good everytime people like outdoor workers are buying it because it's cheap and they don't have time to go home and eat lunch but we must be careful to buy because not every stall is good only some of them who are running for longer period and take care of hygiene is somehow better than others but still smoke from all around is getting into the food if its not covered

Sure, the highest problem is always that of hygienic conditions. it is always to be careful where one buy food from.
