As a newcomer to Thailand, I have what might be a foolish question. I have been told that the tap water here is not safe to drink even in tourist centers like Bangkok, Phuket and Pattaya. Same goes for ice if it's been made from tap water.

I have also been told that you should carefully wash all vegetables and fruits before eating to remove chemicals used in growing them.

My question: Is it Ok to wash fruits and vegetables with tap water from the kitchen sink or must you use bottled water to wash them in order to avoid GI problems ?
