I only really avoid vegetable/fruit platters made by caterers or grocery stores and some types of seafood from places I don't trust, like those "cold" cocktail shrimps, don't trust 'em. But I'll eat cooked shrimp and scallops any time if I feel the restaurant is safe or I prepare it myself. Other than that... I don't really eat salads when I go out, mostly cause I don't like salad, only slightly because of emet. I also avoid any food that other people might have been handling with dirty hands, like communal meals and the such... and those little cubes of cheese that everyone touches. Ugh. I don't like random people to have handled my food. That's about it. Other than that, I'll eat pretty much anything, including copious amounts of sushi and tartare whenever I can get it. I'm careful about expiry dates, but I will eat food that looks unspoiled up the the expiry date, I won't throw it out beforehand. And obviously I will avoid restaurants that seem to have severe food hygiene violations, but I've been known to eat at "dirty" places and survived to tell the tale.
