Street food (SF) and beverages are ready-to-eat food items prepared and sold by vendors in different public places especially in streets and crowded bus or train stations in Bangladesh as well as other countries around the world (Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, 2013; Winarno & Alain, 1991). SF is an age-old practice and earning source of income in several countries (Cortese et al., 2016). Worldwide increase of unemployment and poverty are the key factors behind people tend to run street food businesses, because it requires minimal experience and capital to set up (Addo-Tham et al., 2020; King et al., 2000). It plays a vital socio-economic role by providing food and nutritional supports to the lower and middle-income people at a reasonably low price and is valued for the unique taste of its food items (Khairuzzaman et al., 2014). It is a typical food culture; due to the pricing of street food it is easily accessible to everyone (Lucca & Torres, 2006). At the same time, due to their current hectic lifestyle, people have to depend on street foods as they are too busy to spend at home (Temeche et al., 2016). At the same time, street foods offer a pleasant diet for many consumers and help low-income people’s livelihoods with contributions to the economy. (Al Mamun et al., 2013; Anandhi et al., 2015; König et al., 2010). Around 2.5 billion people worldwide consume street foods per day (Fellows & Hilmi, 2011). Street food safety is a critical public health issue in the third world and developing countries, including Bangladesh. (Khairuzzaman et al., 2014; Muinde & Kuria, 2005; Samapundo et al., 2016). In those countries, street food is an important source of food for the urban dwellers and the concerns about street food are the safety, nutritional value, vendor’s knowledge of food hygiene and the ineffectiveness of safety legislations (Hiamey & Hiamey, 2018). In Bangladesh, street vendors are typically clustered in overcrowded areas including residential areas, near the workplaces, taxi ranks, railway stations and busy street pavements due to the hope of mass sales (Gamieldien & van Niekerk, 2017). People of all ages from different backgrounds consume these food items as these are inexpensive, convenient and comparatively nutritious (Lues et al., 2006).
