    It’s worth mentioning that the flatogenic index of that kind of eating is off the chart. If anyone reading this has a diet like that please, for the love of everything good in this world, get a job that is outdoors.

        No kidding. Every time I fly I wind up on the same flight with a bunch of people that hit up an all-you-can-eat chili buffet the night before. They proudly let the entire cabin know this the very instant we hit cruising altitude.

        The only upside here is that not even first-class is safe. I really feel bad for the flight attendants.

          I have mercifully not experienced that. Usually, I get stuck between two people with communicable diseases who missed the early childhood education experience of being told not to wipe their nose on their hands, cover their mouth for coughs, wash their hands etc. Fml.

            Yeah, that’s pretty awful. The pandemic taught us all that enough people are gross like that.

            At this point, I just assume that every airport is packed to the gills with coronavirus. I mask up, avoid eating with my hands, try not to eat much at all, and wash thoroughly. That said, I ate at a sit-down restaruant at O’hare this summer and immediately caught it anyway; my flight was delayed and i was ravenous.

              When I flew recently, I wore a mask fortunately but needed to eat on the plane so some mask-off time. I’m not sure the plague stuck though; I’m a bit under the weather but not as bad as my seatmates. 🤞
