On airplane food and fats Sorry if there are any mistakes I haven't slept but I had to share. As airlines have had to deal with more razor thin profit margins. So I t comes as no surprise that in-flight refreshments and means have also suffered. Yes, it can suck being stuck in economy with a fatass who refuses to accept its gluttony and buy a second seat. Still lately I've found in my frequent trips that watching a ham try to eat it's comically portioned food (normal portion for the rest of us) is my new passtime at 32k feet. I was sitting across the isle and thankfully not next to this ham as it struggled with its meal. I'm not sure of other parts of the world but so far the US really goes out of its way to skimp on food. So when I see the ham look down in complete sadness that it didn't pack millions of snacks for the four hour flight I couldn't help but laugh.  First it took ages to get served so the ham had to sit there and smell food and prevent itself the from outsight drooling and rushing down the isle. Not even my dog so longingly at his favorite toy or treat. Then when the food came and it screwed up and ordered the smaller of the two dishes. It looked so angry at itself as the two people next to him ate (what was a generous amount for an airline) and he got a soggy tiny burrito. Sorry no 3lb chipotle burritos here piggy. It got better when it tried to not eat the salad but it's urge to eat made it eat it in the end. It's single consolation was able to steal the biscotti cookie from the tray of the person next to him as they were passing the trays back and asking to keep can of coke instead of just the glass full they give you (fellow, flight attendant ham agreed). Lastly about 30min before landing it asked a flight attendant if it could buy some snacks after it watched the person a few rows in front get a snack. and flight attendant said no because we were about to start out descent. After landing it bolted for the Dunkin' Donuts for some Beth's instead of getting its bag like the rest of us.  TLDR; Fatass suffers with in flight food being so small/normal and forces itself to eat the salad.
