I no longer had a choice. Dining away from home is fraught with potential problems; you don't always know how the food is cooked, and you tend to eat larger portions than you should. Some experts estimate that restaurant portions can be three times larger than a "normal" serving size. So what is a healthy portion? Fruits and vegetables should be the size of your fist; meat should be no bigger than a deck of cards; fish should be the size of a checkbook.
One time I tried to take an overnight bus between Mukachevo and Chernivtsi, and it was a disaster. First of all, the bus itself was basically a glorified marshrutka. I was supposed to be there for 11 hours, and I think I stole someone's seat because I was number 45 and I only saw seats until 44. The bus was packed, and there were people standing in the aisle. I had to get off after an hour because of food poisoning, but it would have been a hellish trip.
