In rural Burma, I had one single sip of green tea offered by a monk friend. I was tired and wanted to be a gracious guest so I happily accepted ... only later did I remember that the water for green tea is not brought to a boil. That single sip of tea cost me 9 days of shitting-my-guts-out misery in a third-world country without access to western medicine. I normally travel with Imodium (Loperamide) but it was illegal in Vietnam, because it is technically an opioid.
