I only recommend it if you know for a fact that you are being charged more than normal. I never felt like I had insulted any of the food vendors in Thailand by asking for a more reasonable price though. Also, most Thai food vendors have their prices clearly marked, so there's no need to haggle. Matt, I agree that it is tricky to haggle for food.

In vietnam, i've only haggled with the bread sellers but overall, if you haggle for food in countries like thailand, they will be very disrespected. it’s considered rude to haggle for food.
