When you go to Philippines, do you have previous thoughts and feelings, like 'oh gosh the food will make me sick?'
Well this time yep it was on my mind. Cant blame me though, last year it wrecked two whole weeks of my holiday! Thank God I was out there 2 months so I had 6 weeks of enjoyment.

I see some comments here about ice. Hmm one thing I did assume was that mcdonalds and places like that in manila and other cities use ice from bottled water as I did have ice many times out there.

Also another problem - I was out in the province for a week with the wife's family and I ate a lot of their food. It was very fresh (i.e. killed 1 hr before!) and I was asked to eat so often, I felt it rude to refuse so I did eat a lot of stuff I didnt recognise but it was all cooked.

I just feel whatever happens Im gonna get it...and on a plane too - thats the worst. I hope no one here ever gets it on a flight. When those seatbelt lights go on and you are squirming in your seat agh its a nightmare!!!!
