We call it the 'kleermakerszit' or 'tailor's sit'. I bet you can even maintain the lotus position which is even harder for those who aren't used to from young age.

I have Arab friends who'd been to India before, and they told me that the food is great there.

No, diarrhea is the worst thing that can happen during a vacation (comes second after a stolen passport)

The reason - different hygienic standards in different countries. I guess my body is not resistant against bacteria that are common occurred in street food in exotic countries like India or Turkey.

Why, you don't have döner kebabs in the Czech Republic? Never drank ayran? That's Turkish street food.

By nationality, yes, I am. By ethnicity, I'm a Palestinian Arab.

If u would see in which conditions is prepared, trust me, u wouldn't touch it even but if it's deep fried food prepared just in front of u i guess it's fine...

My mom doesn't let me eat street food, but I do eat it without her knowing. I've never really gotten sick from it, though a lot of the times, things aren't made from hygienic methods. Though, there are trusted establishments that are known for employing hygienic methods and such. The foodranger dude does go to some places like that (e.g. Kareem's in Old Delhi which is more than a century old restaurant and is very famous), and probably some rather unknown ones.
