That is scary, @boomthrive. Sometimes vendors are just not responsible for the foods they sell, but as consumers, we must be cautious of what we eat. We'll know if it's dirty just by looking at the food, or the place where it's made and sold. Also, sometimes people just take diarrhea and cholera for granted, but these are deadly if you don't treat it fast and right!
By the way, are health inspectors in Uganda not strict enough to impose proper hygiene, sanitation and handling on street foods?
