It is worth reading and then one could picture a slender aluminum tube sliding gracefully through the skies filled with over three hundred passengers each one sated with curry and mustard.....

Is it meat or cake?

[youngidiot]

“crime scene cookie”. Very nice.

[GeorgiaDawg32]

the best in-flight meal I ever had was on singapore airlines..United’s weren’t bad, Delta’s sucked..

[Dr.Zoidberg]

Is it meat or cake?

It's a bit of both, we call it meatcake.

Thank you for flying Virgin Airlines.

What does it smell like?

[pgkdan]

That’s hilarious.

Is it meat or cake?

With Obama getting rid of the "Don't ask, don't tell" rule for the military, it had to find a new home somewhere. Now it is the policy of Virgin Airline's food service department when dealing with their menu. Share and Enjoy.

How could the flight attendants tell which course they were serving?

[ArrogantBustard]

“If you don’t eat yer meat, you can’t have any pudding. How can you
have any pudding if you don’t eat yer meat?”

That e-mail is a scream. I loved the part about “if my parents knew I had started dessert before the main course, that would be the least of my worries...”

[RobRoy]

As someone who flies a lot, that looks pretty good.

[Dr.Zoidberg]

You know what an apricot smells like?

It's nothing like that.

[freekitty]

It is funny and the least Richard could do is buy the man a really good meal after that crap he served him on the plane.

I grew up in a Scottish/Irish household. TV dinners were prized. I’ll eat anything.

Scots/German here - my fondest memory is of joining the Army, and discovering the mess hall.

“If you don’t eat yer meat, you can’t have any pudding. How can you have any pudding if you don’t eat yer meat?”

How indeed? This meal apparently blows right past the meat and pudding conundrum and extends it to a new and somewhat frightening level. How can you have your meat if it IS pudding? How? Indeed.

[Ditter]

It looks like tamales with a spinach sauce and a tomato wedge. Brits are such weenies.

Irish/German here --- my fondest memory of joining the Army was finding the mess hall as well ...

... closely followed by finding the Class VI store.
