Lunch was barely seasoned spaghetti and my meals on other JL flights (part of
this itinerary) were also bad, but nothing was quite as insubstantial this. It was cute of the crew to serve the banana with chopsticks, though!
Look what you might have gotten if you ordered a kosher meal on a long-haul BA flight:
four bananas!
