I love travelling

Today, as always, I have a very weak stomach. I'm in Japan right now, and all the unfamiliar foods set me off every time I eat. I can choose between having a great time and starving myself half to death, or sitting in my hotel room all day with stomach pains and diarrhea. FML

Today, like most days, no matter what I eat, my stomach does not agree. FML

Today, everything I eat makes me sick, so I don't know what to eat anymore now. My BMI is low and I'm absolutely starving. I can't even eat rice. FML

Today, I'm sick with a stomach flu. For the last 5 hours, I've been going back and forth from the couch to the bathroom. Each time I get into the bathroom, I have to make a choice of whether to sit on the toilet or kneel by it. Each time I have to clean up the other mess. FML

Today, I have the stomach flu. If my belly growls, I have 30 seconds or less to get to the bathroom. I can't go to the doctor for fear of shitting my pants on the trip there. FML

Today, I was diagnosed with food poisoning for the third time since moving to this base in Japan. My husband keeps cooking questionable meat and vegetables from the commissary because he thinks the food from a Japanese grocery store is radioactive. FML

Today, I hate my body. If I eat anything at all, even a piece of fruit, I get terrible stomach cramps, and yet if I go too long without eating, I get gassy diarrhoea. FML

Today, I'm on spring break on a tropical island, visiting family I hadn't seen in years. They invited me out to eat, and won't take no for an answer. All of this would be wonderful, if it weren't for the fact that I've been vomiting to the point of expelling bile and dry heaving for the last two days. FML

Today, I went out to eat to celebrate getting over the stomach flu. I hadn't eaten solid food in over a week, so I was really excited and ordered my favorite dish. It gave me food poisoning. FML

Today, my roommates decided to do some experimental baking. To be supportive, I tried one of their creations. I've been alternating between vomiting and diarrhea for the past hour. My jaw is sore from vomiting, and I can barely muster the energy to flush between "switching sides" anymore. FML

Go to MOS Burger then. It's pretty Americanized there. Or eat onigiri in favors like chicken mayonnaise. It was quite tolerable to me. Just stay away from the natto!

Stick to rice and noodles. Cut out any seafood and make sure you know what exactly you're ordering.

Actually it's the different bacteria in the water. A country like japan shouldn't have that issue since all the water is heavily filtered. Likely op either has such a weak stomach that a macrobiotic diet is the only option. Or they didn't think to bring pepto/build a tolerance.

they have a lot of foreign places. Italian food is quiet good and popular. You can also get middle eastern food, french and even American food. Just ask people or read an English guide book.

Honestly, you are either lying or very thick. For starters there are Mc Donalds, KFC's and Burger Kings in Japan. Probably Subway's too. However, that aside, the Japanese are noted for their very bland food. Rice and fish is hardly something to upset somebodies stomach. Even their curry is very bland. I have no sympathy for you.
