r/VietnamFood

I love Vietnamese food as well as their coffees , tea, sinh To smoothie and pretty much everything.

I find it to be so tasteful and healthy.

However, I’ve been told that Vietnamese food was harmul, toxic containing differents high levels of pesticides. And that it was far from being organic. That eating Vietnamese food were the cause of all sorts of cancers for Vietnamese.

Also many think, it’s not hygienic.

The same for coffee and tea.

How true is that? Is that really the case? Or it’s more nuanced?

Cause to me Vietnamese food tastes so good and appear to be healthy.

Hi all, Me and my Girlfriend will be meeting my friend in Hanoi around late December who I haven’t seen in a while as he has been in Australia.

We’re into drinking on stools, bars, pubs, rooftops, wandering with bottles, basically any type of drinking etc.

We would like to know some good spots to do:

1. Quiet drinks catching up just me and him

2. Drinks with a good atmosphere

3. Places with a good atmosphere to be on New Year’s Eve (31st Dec)

Please let me know ! Thanks

I bought a frozen pre-cut sealed packaged Durian at H Mart yesterday evening. At home, I accidentally left it out on my counter overnight. When I saw my mistake this morning, I put it in the refrigerator. It doesn't smell rotten. (It's my first time ever trying Durian!!)

Can I still eat it today or will I get sick because of foodborne illness from it being left out overnight?
