They say don’t eat the vegetables, with their crispy freshness and tempting colors a striking contrast to the consistent sloppiness of of indian dressings and dips.  It doesn’t seem possible that such a sickness could survive on these lively greens… and against all good advice and my better judgement, and even by a small accident of translation, i was too bold and too confident and got my first poisoning.  It was surely a breakfast wrap in Pushkar.  Left me the rest of the day more uncertain than uneasy.  But by nightime I had no appetite (surely a distressing sign).  And by bedtime I was vomitting.  All in all, not such a bad case - a couple days of crackers and water… only a few spews in total. Just now getting my appetite back and excited to return to the relative safety of deep fried street food and questionably pasteurized dairy products.
