What's up with airline food?
b'
Aeroplane food doesn\\u2019t have the greatest reputation. Though it might be easy to blame an airline for serving lacklustre meals, the problem is more complex.
Ruth Alexander discovers how the physics of flying wreaks havoc on our senses, the extraordinary lengths airlines have gone to try to dress up their food offering, and what it\\u2019s like to be the one serving you at your seat.
And, she asks, will it ever be possible for all passengers to enjoy a tasty and nourishing meal in the air?
Culinary historian, Richard Foss, chef-patron of Kitchen Theory, Jozef Youssef, and flight attendant, Kaylie Kay, join her for the ride.
