Leaving food out
Far ftom being immune diarrheal episides from food are extremely common among Thais and definitely linked to improper good storage, which is also very common. In both cases, also true in neighboring countries. Many Thais do not go a week without a brief episode of diarrhea...so common it is viewed as normal. Which does not mean that it is or that it is harmless. The problem is that refrigerators were traditionally thought of as serving the purpose of making things cold, and thus used only for things one wants to consume cold. Only the unusually well educated know that reftigeration retards food dpoilage. Add to this traditionsl practice of buying ftom the market daily Which made unrefrigerated storage more feasible (but still not idesl). Of course times have changed, many households everyone works, people increasingly buy in larger amounts from supermarkets etc but old habits die hard, edpecially when there is limited knowledge of the relevant science. Obviously these are generalizations and more educated Thais differ. But people have grown up with the idea that a refrigerator is a luxury item designed to make things cold as a taste preference (hence so few large ones) while in the West they have long been understood as a means of preventing contamination and spoilage. -

SWMBO relies totally on the sniff test.....particularly for rice. I've only been hospitalised once. -

Report Israeli Tourist Sparks Outrage Over Shoe Rule Dispute in Thailand
Try to not deflect from what she DID and what she SAID to the Thai person. The person filming and uploading is wholly irrelevant. Truth is truth. Why are you defending her reprehensible behaviour? Is it normal to you? -

Why are you still in Thailand, not in Vietnam?
I have been to Vietnam three times over nearly 25 years. Both the north and the south, and both solo and with my Thai gal. All those trips left me unsatisfied. Had a good time, but found alot of the locals there to be like wet fish. Not warm, and rather heavy hearted. Kind of like the Chinese. Nah. No need to go back. I prefer Thailand by light years.
