The Food Hygienic Standard Division of the BMA's Health Department announced on Monday the finding of its survey of Bangkok foods markets in 2017.

The division also surveyed 220 non-permanent markets, which don’t have buildings and are held outdoors on specific days of the week, and found that 89 of them failed to meet the required standards of hygiene.

Thian Posted February 12, 2018 Posted February 12, 2018 So can we see the diamond-signs at the entrance of the markets now?
Get Real Posted February 12, 2018 Posted February 12, 2018 What a great surpise! Who would have tought that was a fact? 1
eliotness Posted February 12, 2018 Posted February 12, 2018 I wonder what was the criteria set to achieve gold or even diamond status. From the places I've seen the qualifing standards must be pretty low.

C'mon. We all know what they touched before. We just don't want to think about it. On an aside, I suspect the filthiest thing in any public toilet is the trigger on the bum gun.

Bangkok Barry Posted February 12, 2018 Posted February 12, 2018 Why name the markets that are okay? What we need to know are the ones that are not. Or does that leave those who list them open to be prosecuted with the defamation laws for telling the truth? 1
farcanell Posted February 12, 2018 Posted February 12, 2018 Would it be fair to explapolate that out to a generalization that 1/3 of thai permanent markets are unhygienic?.... and an even higher percentage of non permanent markets, to boot. whatever the reality, what I do know for sure and certain, is that for me, eating market foods is a great cure for constipation... works every time (even if a little messy ?????). 1
PAIBKK Posted February 12, 2018 Posted February 12, 2018 All of them applied for a Michelin Star I assume ??? That's why they were visited.... Also another reason cooking myself for me and the family... When I'm cooking no one gets sick..

colinneil Posted February 13, 2018 Posted February 13, 2018 A lot of markets here are filthy places, rats running about, flies everywhere, s tall holders using the same dirty rag to clean everything, we never buy from local markets.

This is not very well known, but 30-50% (depending on which study you read) of healthy people have the pathogenies Streptococcus pneumoniae in their nose fully naturally. So yes, better cook that meet well. And nose is not the only place those fingers have touched. 1
