 be sensible and you'll be fine.
As for the Po Chai pills, years ago I was starting to feel a bit queasy and a friend gave me the pills in an effort to ward off anything worse. Unfortunately, it turned out not to be a simple upset stomach and I got horribly horribly sick. I will never (never!) forget the taste of those damn pills when I revisited them several hours after I took them. Even the mention of the name give me the shivers now.
During a recent trip to India my husband and I ate a lot of street food and never once got sick during a month of travel there. The only time our stomachs felt a little funny was after eating Western food at a 5 Star Hotel.
Not only did we not get sick, but we ate some of the most memorable meals of our lives from street vendors.
By the way, we took Acidophilus Pills before and during our trip to help strengthen our stomachs. We also consumed a lot of yogurt, so perhaps these measures helped as well.
I love street food and will most likely get it throughout the world. In fact, I've frightened my in-laws by stopping at taco carts in Mexico shortly after finishing dinner in a restaurant. I just can't restrain myself.
Cops in New York typically write up vendors for minor infractions, such as too close/far away from the curb, not displaying a license prominently, etc, not health code violations. Just use your nose and eyes. Also, highly trafficked carts will have fresher food. In Manhattan you can look at they have a pretty good source of street carts. Also, a week or two ago in was a whole spread of NYC (manhattan and outer borough) street food.
Nice photos...I've enjoyed street food throughout Southeast Asia, China, etc for many years now and those are some of my best memories of those travel experiences- Thailand, Vietnam, and Malaysia in particular. In Thailand, you can go into a bar or club, spend an hour, come out and suddenly there's a noodle soup stand where previously there was nothing. I'd get a kick out of thinking that some prudish individual might be hunting around for a health inspection notice maybe taped on the back of a plastic chair or something....
The only thing I ever brought along when I traveled was a powerful Japanese stomach medicine, which I used after a few restaurant experiences, but never from street food. I say, judge for yourself. You can just as easily get sick in an establishment.

davecook, the way i see it, if the locals are eating it and not dying instantly, then it should be ok. as with asian countries, many people are poor and have no choice but to make something we feel gross, taste good. but then again, there is no kaiser permanente out in mainland china. it's your stomach vs. the whole country. i would pack some pills... i use this one chinese pill called Po Chai Pills which are small brown beads packed into a capsule. if i know i'm going to eat something rocky, i'll down one of these with water. these are herbal supplements and have always made me feel better. (i have a rough time eating a lot of spicy korean food so i'll take one b4 hand). when i was in taiwan, i drank snake blood/venom/bile but they provided us with some pills to prepare the stomach. i felt fine afterwards....

As a little girl, when we children got sick, stomach type sick, this is what the parents and grandparents would make us take. Bleh! Make sure to swallow and not taste the little beads. They use to come in a small vial and I would have to swallow it with water. It was good stuff, but I hated the taste. Again, bleh!

I like Hallo Berlin on W. 55th by 5th Ave and a lot of the vendors in Chinatown. The rest of the vendors with the Sabretts/shishishkebab and Halal stuff, most of it looks pretty rancid. I will go with the Halal carts if the meat doesn't look dry and aged, but I haven't seen to many of those. If I want a Sabrett I usally find a Gray's Papaya hot dog stand. I will say this, everytime I've gotten sick after eating a meal it's always been from a restaurant and not a food stand.I had used the Team EOS Boot Splash image to change the double-M logo to the Jelly Bean logo. After running BigPart and upgrading to Kit Kat, I'd like to restore to stock, but the EOS displays an error message saying it's only compatible with the Xoom.
