What Nairobians eat. If you are eating street, or 'hotel' food, expect death!

If I need street food, I stick to Chick fil A, Wendys, McDonalds, Burger King, Jack In the Box, or any fast food with Sanitation rating of 98%+

Kenyans are lawless motherfuckers

How we accepted this to be our system or the norm is scary. You see our leaders actually addressing people standing in this garbage, their eyes are so used to it that it’s no bother anymore. It takes someone visiting from like USA and you will walk around with your jaw on the floor, in shock. We cannot hide this shame anymore, even the Bible cannot be okay with this, it’s sodom and Gomorrah, hell on earth.

It's 5 months since I discovered the trick to avoid Nairobi diarrhea...just don't eat any street food

The yuck factor aside, a temperature of 165F(just over 70C) kills most disease causing pathogens.  The real issue is over recycled frying oil.  Food cooked in that kind of oil can elevate cholesterol levels, blood pressure, acidity...just a bad take for your heart.  Obviously the post cooking handling is going to be suspect.  Reminds me of eating at a Nigerian restaurant in Rogers Park.  You could see them move the food in suspicious buckets and they are generally fast and loose with how they handle it.  I am not sure how many times that food had been moved back and forth but it tasted insanely good.  Except I had to spend time afterwards on my toilet seat listening to explosions at 3am - cleaned out my guts.

Past Tom Mboya towards Nairobi River, there are no waste bins. Garbage collection is privately organised despite paying kanjo officially and kanjo thugs who inspect these eateries. No tap water or highly rationed.

I hear them saying there is a free toilet where they are arresting the young man, that would be a kanairo miracle.

I watch Asian food blogs and they use huge amounts of oil. In Kenya, it is recycled due to the high prices as a result of taxes and the govt aided cartels milking consumers.

To get a plate below 200 ($1.5) you have to have those 'Only Staff allowed in the kitchen" signs for a reason.

The worst thing is food contamination.
Pesticides in food is rampant. Someone uses raw sewage to grow food
When I grew up we used to add pesticides to corn before we store it. We will then process the corn and eat it!! No wonder cancer is rampant

I have seen a lot of these videos now coming through on social Media, the guy is like the Nairobi CS for environment or something like that. He is walking around Nairobi showing how unsanitary it is and ordering people to clean up or be arrested. This is all well and good but what are the Nairobi county solutions? It’s hard to blame people who pay taxes without offering alternatives and solutions. Where is that idiot Sakaja? Where is his blueprint forward? Is he busy stealing? Our leaders from now on should not be called Mheshimiwa, start calling them future prisoners.
