Well, I was surprised to find a wikipedia article on airline meals - even more surprised to find that, according to this article, alcohol is not a liquid... jmdeur 19:30 8 May 2008 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.148.60.151 (talk)

[edit] Yoghurt

I think that we should say here that when a passenger opens the yoghurt cup, he should turn it towards the front seat, at least if he doesn't want to end up with a dirty tie :-) --Cantalamessa 22:14, 14 May 2006 (UTC)


I added two paragarphs about food safety and palatability, explaining why so much airline food is 'bland'. It still needs a little more editing at the end to finish the article properly. -- Stuart Midgley 20.48 AEST, 20 May 2006

[edit] Sharing meal by crew

Acording to this article, belief that both pilots have to eat different meal is false. However this article is from 1984...

It is widely believed that pilots and co-pilots are required not to share any common food items when they eat aboard flights so as to avoid becoming ill while at the controls. But the belief - which is shared even by epidemiologists at the Centers for Disease Control - is false. No airline industry regulations govern food service to the cockpit crews, according to spokesmen for the Civil Aeronautics Board, the Federal Aviation Administration and various pilot and industry associations.
