If you doubt that she was cured, you should have her get retested for chlamydia before you have sex with her. You can get chlamydia from her if you perform oral, anal, or vaginal sex on her. You cannot contract it by kissing her or by her performing oral sex on you. Regardless of whether she has it or not, you should use a condom.

I have not read anything that says poor hygiene and food preparation is a way to transmit chlamydia. If the food is cooked, I would think that the high temperature would kill any germs or traces of the disease. I suppose if a person prepared a salad or other uncooked food it would be possible, though unlikely, to transmit chlamydia.
