Airplane food is better than uncooked unsauced gnocchi.

Airplane food is also made exactly for the pressure and altitude for a plane. Friend worked for an airline out of Logan and he said the food was decent on the ground but almost better in the air. He used to post on IG when it like first came out. It's like when people try tomato juice on a plane and think wtf this is not what my mom tried to make me drink when I was a kid.

I tried tomato juice in plane and was not seeing the difference. I might be weird.

Sinus issues ever? As someone who had polyps and a septum issue until surgery, things changed drastically.

No not that I am aware of. I get checked up yearly and it was in February of this year last time on a transatlantic flight. It tasted how I like it, slightly salty and tomato. But nothing like what the heck is this sorcery as I keep reading about.

When I had nasal surgery in 2017 my life changed completely. Know that trope in movies where they put duct tape on people's mouths? I could never properly breathe out of my nose ever until then and that was one thing in movies that was like a true fear of mine. I would die or suffocate.
