Topic: news I’m Sure It’ll be Fine: Street Food and Food Safety Standards in China

I'd trust a bit of food that has been prepared right in front of me over something that has been sitting in a five star hotel's bain marie for four or five hours any day of the week. I'm happy to see that there will be a bit of, hopefully sensible, regulation of the street sellers that I would like to see focused on hygiene standards (obviously) and also making sure that they don't create an obstacle for pedestrians. Seeing an improvement in the standards of the chengguan would also be a plus. As for JayKnox: Wow, you found something you don't like and told us about it. You figured out that westerners might like western food (whatever "western food" is). You even went to the bother of creating a diametrically opposite "foodie" straw man and punched it in the face! Well done, you're my new hero and your medal is in the post.
