When I say these things- I mean literally every mishap you can get from food. Not just Hepatitus. If your graphic pointed at mad cow disease, Great Britain would be a danger zone.
Hey, boycott Mexico. It doesn't bother me. I'm not going to though. I wouldn't hesitate at all to travel to and eat in many of those countries in the red. Particularly India.
I've traveled and eaten in Mexico --- but of course they have warnings in every tourist book around --- unlike what happened to these poor victims of Chi Chis. Plus if we're going to have third world health standards now for the USA --- then we need to educate people how to survive better with them. If we want to live like third worlders because it's cheaper then we have to stop eating fresh vegetables just like third worlders have if they want to avoid diseases that travel the fecal-oral route.
