Here's a simple solution - eat only where you see locals eating.

That means you won't eat much at AIs
To each there own, but you are missing out on a really great part of the vacation in Cozumel if you limit yourself to a resort. There are a few dive destinations where I would only stay at a resort, but Cozumel is definitely not one of them. There are so many great food options - all price ranges and all types. I have a cheese clothe stomach and in almost 20yrs of trips to the Yucatan (mainland, Isla Mujeres and Cozumel), I've only been sick a few times and never from the food. All were tap water related and I learned very quickly to not believe anyone when they say the hotel or condo tap water was safe to use...I don't think I've eaten anything other than AI food in Coz

One of the attractive parts for us in Cozumel is the food. We love to try the small places in the neighborhoods as well as the more well know restaurants. Last November we stayed at El Cozumelano with some friends for 3 nights. We ate breakfast there each morning and had lunch when we got back from diving. Having the dinner buffet would have been insanely boring, almost torture for us so we went into town. The food in town is so good! The last 4 nights of that vacation we stayed at a condo that we rent in Corpus Christi. We have never had a problem with sickness. As you said Scubawife, to each their own.
