The most that people expect from airlines nowadays is that the food is edible and enough to survive until they get to their destination.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While airplane food is not a big deal if your flight is just a couple of hours long for a <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/offmetro.com\/ny\/71608\/the-best-weekend-getaways-by-plane\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">weekend getaway<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, it can get quite frustrating if you are taking longer international flights that can take as long as 19 hours!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This means that you will have to eat airplane food for almost four meals and three-four snacks in between.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you are going to be eating airplane food, the following are some food offerings you should avoid if possible.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>1. Cheese And Other Dairy<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The problem with airplanes is that people underestimate how uncomfortable air pressure changes can impact the human body. They can be a cheese-guzzling machine on the ground but have severe nausea when in the air.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The issue is not just the things you eat on the plane, but also right before your flight.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is best to avoid cheesy foods such as greasy pizza or any dairy-heavy foods such as a milkshake.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>2. Coffee And Tea<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you have ever talked to a flight attendant, they will almost always say that the coffee and tea available onboard is made with the nastiest water possible.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This water comes from a tank that is close to the water tank that supplies water to the toilets.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Moreover, coffee and tea can heavily stain your teeth so if you\u2019re going to binge on these beverages on a long flight, you should invest in some trustworthy dental products like this <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.smilebrilliant.com\/product\/teeth-whitening-gel\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">teeth whitening gel<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> for fighting the teeth stains.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>3. Seafood<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you are not traveling in the base fair or economy class, chances are that your food will have more expensive ingredients such as seafood or beef.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Of course, meats of any kind can be questionable on planes, but seafood can be a nuisance.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The more you consume seafood that is rich in salt, the more likely you are to develop a stomach issue. Excessive salt can also cause dehydration.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Meats also make it pretty easy for bacteria to thrive as they are hardly ever reheated in the airplane to avoid overcooking.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>4. Soda&nbsp;<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sodas are usually considered a safe option when it comes to planes as they are pre-packaged with hardly any safety issues.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, carbonated beverages can again dehydrate you severely and cause stomach issues such as gas.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The best drink for a plane is water all the way.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>5. Juices<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Juices are considered healthy as they are made from fruits and vegetables. But beware as you order these because they are high in sugar and preservatives.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Especially on long flights, increased sugar can be quite a problem causing swollen limbs due to the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.healthline.com\/health\/poor-circulation-symptoms-causes\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">lack of movement and even blood clots<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> for some.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>6. Potatoes<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While it may seem like potatoes are a safe bet after reading the other things on this list, they might not be as safe as you thought. Any food rich in starch or fiber can be a bad choice to eat on planes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While some of these fiber-rich foods may be healthy, they might put too much pressure on your gut to digest them with little to no movement for hours.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This can result in gas, bloating, and other unpleasant problems.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Conclusion<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">All in all, there are many things you should be aware of when traveling by plane, especially for longer durations. Make sure to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.travelandleisure.com\/how-to-fly-with-medication-7093199\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">pack some medicines<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> in your carry-on so you can deal with any issues that may arise because of the food.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Airplane food is infamous for lacking taste and overall appeal as a meal.
