Korean Air will be punished with a flight ban or fines after the daughter of its chief executive delayed a flight with a tantrum over being served macadamia nuts she had not asked for.
Cho Hyun-Ah, a former senior executive with the carrier, forced the chief cabin crew member off a New York-Seoul flight after she took exception to the snack - and the fact it was served in a bag rather a bowl.

Isn’t that one nut, not two? Hazel in the U.S./Filbert in the U.K., right?

LOL - I was going to post that one could argue that Brazil nuts are, in a way, named after a whole GROUP of people. But I’ve never called them that. I know people who did when they were kids, though.

All the way from Coach. ;-)
