Strange how street food venders in bangkok (and elsewhere) were targeted and basically shut down as they were a health risk when the lack of air quality in Bangkok is going to kill everyone anyway.

It would be double bad eating street food in the pollution, that would certainly end you twice as fast.????

The lack of air quality is not going to kill anyone. Unless they are already on the verge.

Times I caught food poisoning in LOS - 1

Times I caught it at a HiSo restaurant - 1

Times I caught it eating street food - 0

Lyric says America - but now worldwide

And never had a problem with street food either.

Street food is a big health risk in itself

Time will get you in the end...

That's not true... The World Health Organization did a report in 2016 that estimated about 22,000 or so Thais die every year from the effects of air pollution induced medical problems -- lung cancer, heart attacks, heart disease, strokes, COPD, etc etc.

 

 

So please don't spout gibberish that's based on absolutely nothing than your own ignorant opinions.

 

 

 

Air pollution is a killer....

When I lived in Thailand I wasn't concerned about bacteria in food as much as pesticide, which I am sure was the cause in my case. When I moved around Chiang Mai behind belching vehicles I found myself not breathing. Both pollution and pesticides are like silent killers. After these issues and the road dangers I often think about having made it out of Thailand alive!
