While usually nutritious, leafy greens like spinach and lettuce can harbour bacteria and dirt due to the moist environment

Street Food

Increased risk of contamination due to the unhygienic preparation and exposure to pollutants

Seafood

The breeding season for fish and seafood, making them more prone to spoilage and contamination

Pre-cut fruits can attract flies and other insects, increasing the risk of waterborne diseases

Cut Fruits

Milk and other dairy products spoil faster in the humid weather, leading to foodborne illnesses

Dairy Products

The humidity can make fried items soggy, and the oil used can become rancid quickly
