Airline chow is infamous for being inedible, but one beverage is worse, according to an industry insider.
Dont drink the coffee on airplanes. Its the same potable water that goes through the bathroom system, an unidentified flight attendant for a major American airline revealed to Vice.com.
We recently had a test for E. coli in our water and it didnt pass, and then maintenance came on and hit a couple buttons and it passed, the flight attendant added. So, avoid any hot water or tea. Bottled and ice is fine, of course.
That said, sipping bottled water could lead you to use the planes bathrooms, which the anonymous stew called the most disgusting places on the planet.
Theres no way these people act this way in their normal lives, the source added. But they get on a plane and go, Cool, Ill just pee all over the floor and dump my peanuts right on the ground.

The fresh water system is serviced and sanitized on a daily basis, and is a completely separate system from the lavatory system.
LOL!
**Sh!thole** - the catch-all, catch-word for 2018.
You heard it here first.
Actually, ground coffee can “reset” your odor receptors. They use it at perfume counters all the time.
Good idea by someone to have a coffee packet in the loo.
Talk about needing to go back to re-education camp, sheesh - that one is on the top of the proscribed 5,937 racist and sexist and otherwise triggering words and terms, the next line below "Trump."
It’s not steak and it’s not fish. /s
We’ve had some pretty awful, cheap grub served us on planes. And eight peanuts do not constitute a meal, more or less a delicious dining experience. . But we flew air canada a few years ago and the meals were high quality and excellent (and they even had free seconds of entire dinners if you could manage to consume more than one).
Tell that to waitresses. Having some ugly old broad I’ve never met call me darlin’ and sweetheart at a restaurant is irritating. I can barely tolerate it when a hot waitress does.
You drink water? Like in the toilet?
You should drink BRAWNDO! It has the electrolytes your body (and plants) crave!
“Stew”?
Yes, its the same water that does INTO the toilet, not OUT.
I dont get this story unless theyre making their coffee from heated water that sits.
This comprehensive study of aircraft water shows the diverse nature of bacteria that travel. However the bacteria represented do not fall into the dangerous infectious microorganism categories, e.g., Shiga toxin producing E. coli, Legionella, and Enterococcus etc., which can inhabit water. Nevertheless, the isolated bacteria from this study have the potential to cause illness in certain sectors of the travelling population including immunocompromised individuals.
There is practically no part of an aircraft interior that isn't filthy these days. I'm long sleeve shirts, and avoid eating or drinking anything on the plane to the maximum extent possible.
And because of the number of miles I have - I am usually upgraded to first class. The cheapest seat on the plane in the 1970’s was cleaner than even first class is today!
Or “honey” or just “hun”
Bottle water sales will escalate.
Joe: For the last time, I’m pretty sure what’s killing the crops is this Brawndo stuff.
Secretary of State: But Brawndo’s got what plants crave. It’s got electrolytes.
Attorney General: So wait a minute. What you’re saying is that you want us to put water on the crops.
Joe: Yes.
Attorney General: Water. Like out the toilet?
Joe: Well, I mean, it doesn’t have to be out of the toilet, but, yeah, that’s the idea.
Secretary of State: But Brawndo’s got what plants crave.
Attorney General: It’s got electrolytes.
Joe: Okay, look. The plants aren’t growing, so I’m pretty sure that the Brawndo’s not working. Now, I’m no botanist, but I do know that if you put water on plants, they grow.
Secretary of Energy: Well, I’ve never seen no plants grow out of no toilet.
Secretary of State: Hey, that’s good. You sure you ain’t the smartest guy in the world?
Joe: Okay, look. You wanna solve this problem. I wanna get my pardon. So why don’t we just try it, okay, and not worry about what plants crave?
Attorney General: Brawndo’s got what plants crave.
Secretary of Energy: Yeah, it’s got electrolytes.
Joe: What are electrolytes? Do you even know?
Secretary of State: It’s what they use to make Brawndo.
Joe: Yeah, but why do they use them to make Brawndo?
Secretary of Defense: ‘Cause Brawndo’s got electrolytes.
“Tell that to waitresses. Having some ugly old broad Ive never met call me darlin and sweetheart at a restaurant is irritating. I can barely tolerate it when a hot waitress does.”
Aw, cranky. Think of them as your mom or your grandma. Why reject the affection?
Seriously?
Well, its not a great visual :(
First Haitians and now Planes called shitholes. How many more must suffer?
We recently had a test for E. coli in our water and it didnt pass,
Then it isn't "Potable Water"
