The grime and dampness in them make them highly susceptible to germs. So, try to stay away from vegetables such as spinach, cabbage, and cauliflower during the monsoons.

Fruit and Juice from Street Vendors

Any fresh food product that has had a long exposure to the rainy air should not be eaten.

Fried Items

Fried items should be completely refrain from during rainy season. The excessive humid monsoon weather causes the digestion process to slow down. However irresistible that spread of pakodas, tikkis and kachodi may appear, they could cause gastronomical issues such as bloating and stomach upset.  Excessive salty food also causes water retention.
