Notes
If you have specific dietary concerns when in doubt, check it out, with an appropriate healthcare professional. We are not dieticians or doctors, just people trying to eat healthy and delicious, with the flavors of Thailand. When it comes to freshness, when in doubt throw it out, is also an easy to remember safety motto. The smell test can't be understated and don't risk it if there's a doubt.
