You're serious ... street food vs in home/building cooking lessons. Ever heard of YouTube, or a cookbook. Food from the street or night market, no different than in home cooking, unless you plan on buying a mobile cart/cooking station. Since 'street food' seems to be a generic name to all food cooked in TH now, I'm not seeing what the difference is, since no longer needs to be serve, outside a building/on the street via mobile vendor. They call one chickie's ฿1000 crab omelet 'street food'. Most Thais don't pay 3 days salary for 1 omelet, no matter how many stars you get the dump. Kudos to the guy who can get ฿25k from ding dong tourist ... that's awesome.

I'm finding that real hard to believe, that there wasn't another contributing cause. Possible something that concentrated the sunlight, glass bottle for instance, for it to reach the flash point to ignite. Tissue paper will need a lot higher temp to spontaneously combust, than <100C, the inside of a car on a hot 45C day. source

And yet, mandatory to report 2 types, along with most reports are from HCP & vaccine manufacturers and SVSC (78% +/- of reports). Surely they actually know what they are reporting. ... "Healthcare providers and manufacturers are required to report two types of adverse events to VAERS within a 7-day period: (a) those that the manufacturer has identified as contraindicating reactions to the vaccine as specified within the manufacturer's package insert and (b) any adverse events present on the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (VICP) Vaccine Injury Table [4]. Healthcare providers and manufacturers are also encouraged to report any other adverse event they consider to be clinically important." ... "From 2000 to 2004, approximately 60% of all domestic reports came from either HCP or vaccine manufacturers and approximately 8% came from vaccine recipients or their parent/guardian; during 2006–2011 these proportions increased slightly to 64% and 10%, respectively, and approximately 4% came from State Vaccine Safety Coordinators (CDC unpublished) (source) Also, most adverse events are NOT reported ... ... ""Underreporting" is one of the main limitations of passive surveillance systems, including VAERS. The term, underreporting refers to the fact that VAERS receives reports for only a small fraction of actual adverse events. " (source)

If you have to ask ... ... then you have answered it yourself ...

More illegal immigrants & no ID voting is the way to go for the Dem party ... IMHO Does explain a lot ...

That's a stretch, but hey, anything for yet another reminder. I've never seen 44 written that way. What else can they make up for a silly excuse to keep something in the news, every day, week, month. I may not agree with someone use of 'freedom of expression', but nothing worse, than not having that right. Tyranny rules when it is restricted ... IMHO

Safe & Effective vaccine ... a bit of an oxymoron IMHO Safe .... "600,000 vaccine adverse events reported by adults aged 18 and older" Effective ... ... doesn't stop getting covid ... doesn't stop spreading covid Here's a bit of an observation. When I quote the VAERS numbers, pointing the vaccine may not be a safe & effective as we were told, I'm chastised and told the numbers are irrelevant, meaningless. But, when the numbers can show the right, red states or REPs in a negative view, well hell, they are accurate and prove some point they/the left are trying to make. Go figure ... Makes you wonder, (well, not me), who controls the MSM and the narrative that's allowed ?

I've never owned a car that made it to 250k kms, so if the MG makes it to only half, the extremely conservative 2500 cycles, we'll be thrilled. Well, I'll be dead, but the wife will be knockin' on 70 yrs old. Though more like 90 yrs old, as she'll be putting on 5k kms a year instead of 20k kms a year. Although, at 20k kms a year, we save ฿47,800 by not buying petrol alone, more if all kms are local. So in <20 years, the car will have paid for itself. In less then 2.5 yrs, the added cost of EV vs ICEV version, will have been recovered. One of the best ROI on a depreciating product we've ever bought, along with simply being a joy to drive, over any ICEV that I've owned. There is no negative for us, owning the MG, and stated once or 20 times, would never own another low tech, low performing, vibrating noisy, smelly ICEV. Really can't stress any stronger the benefits of owning an EV instead of ICEV, especially if you have solar, as the saving and ROI are even greater. as long as an EV fits into your lifestyle. Or you could simply remain bias & ignorant, and continue to give your money to the fossil fuel conglomerates .... UP2U On topic as always ... EVs in TH, are a bargain compared to other countries, as long as the govt incentives and tax free import duties last. Add in a possibly more aggressive price war, and one has to wonder what y'all are waiting for. Charging network and pricing of, is excellent compared to other countries, or so we read. It's your baht, keep it, or give it to the billionaires ... UP2U

Don't know where you buy your roti, but our vendor bought roti, whether desert or side dish, is always served on some type of paper, never direct contact on any plastic/styrofoam container. "Dissolved in cooking oil" ... what orifice did you pull that from, as cooking oil, isn't mentioned at all in the study. Also no mention of 'expanded' polystyrene. Did you read the study ? Or just the headline. From the link: "In this research, PS NPs with a diameter of 100 nanometers were used to simulate nanoplastic exposure." Another lets take a guess and come up with results we like. Also, I noted, there is no mention of roti/food contamination from contact with. Just the waste products of, may get into the environment.

Yes, but to have a fuel used, that has a direct link to all kinds of health diseases & issues, when there is simple alternatives, even just better petroleum products is just wrong on every level.

Yea, Yanks don't, or didn't 24 yrs ago, put an egg on a burger, and I've never seen it even offered, anywhere in USA. I still would never, and I thought it was an Aussie thing.

SAIC's ICEV division might be taking a big hit, layoffs (firings) due to poor sales of, and move more toward making EVs. GM & VW, accounting for a huge part of that:

Not really, but if you so say ... ... that one wasn't the first one that popped in my mind.

Your quite the optimist, although the current generation or 2 will out live most of us.

There's more than a couple markets @ soi 72, not counting the 'day' market

HH Night Market @ soi 72 Car parking in HH ... good luck with that

I'm pretty sure I've had the Nana burger, if memory serves, and usually does. Definitely had the 2 that I posted about, and the one at Betong, I enjoyed 10 days ago. Not everyone stays in their '15 minute city' ... Here's a much better photo of the Nana Burger: So hot ... the cheese didn't melt yet. Taste depends a lot on how hungry, or how drunk one is. If same, decent burger though, and close to Ibis, where we have stayed, too many times.

Which one, as there's a few, not counting the ones at Nong Kae south of the hwy 4 RR pver pass. Gmap will help with ball park times.

It's a service of convenience, pay for or don't, but don't complain, and still use constantly. It is definitely convenient and possibly cheaper if living in Krung Thep and want something particularly, especially if anywhere close to rush hour, an all you have is a car. Or get your lazy butt down on the street and pick something up, surely there three 7-11s within walking distance, if not near a street vendor soi. Can even pick up an almost cold beer ... all on the cheap. Never had a problem when there and using, just too easy, and well worth the small charge. Though do prefer to order direct from vendor, and last time I did, they added 40 baht delivery charge anyway. Petrol is ฿38+/-, and not like you CCs are tipping ... as most Thais don't.

NO ... as thought the same thing. Looked OK, but best ... nah, and I'm a Yank. We could use a updated Burger thread, for those not partial to Thai food when out & about, away from Bangkok, as plenty of options there. If happen to be down my way, this is one of the best around, and sets up at the weekend night market, surfside, unless ordered early, their will be a Q: If happen to be at Betong, Yala, not sure about best, but best value for sure, maybe all TH. Burger Bar, double beef burger, all of ฿104:

Pattaya & world class in the same sentence, always gives me a chuckle. And yes, been there enough times to make that assessment.

Haven't road the scooter in a while, a bit hot, but car is charging, so took scooter for my 8.8 kms ride to the park and back, for our daily walk. Diesel ... that is one disgusting fuel. Came back smelling of, on clothes and had to washed my face & arms. How that fuel is even legal is mind boggling ...

Wow ... flying out of the showroom ...
