Consequences of Eating Street Food



This Christmas is going to be well-remembered ---for the wrong reasons. I had forgotten all about Lucas' sensitivity to eating street food by mistakenly handing him a bite of street siomai and a sip of gulaman. The consequence was a "painful tummy" coupled with LBM these past few days (plus a trip to the ER), causing us not to enjoy Christmas Day to the full.

As the missus had said, street food nowadays is not as hygenic as it was when we were kids. The air, the water, it's just all different now so there should be extra care when purchasing food from street vendors.

He's doing a little better now except for occasional stomach pain. Hopefully he's all well tomorrow.

Hay, street food. Never again!
