A flight attendant told me last weekend that United would be introducing an organic buy-on-board option, capitalizing on the whole organic nationwide trend.

Sure enough, I checked online today and found the new "smartpack:"

Nutritious and delicious, healthy, natural and organic ingredients to give you the energy you need for your travels. Includes:

SunGold SunButterTM
Cowbell CheeseTM white cheddar
Hero strawberry jam
Bear Naked® fruit and nut granola
Vermont Village organic peach applesauce
Alcer Tangerine Emergen-C® drink mix
Pita Shack Multigrain & Honey Lavash crackers
Bali's Best® Latte candy

Not a bad selection, and certainly some more healthful choices. ^

Has anyone tried one of these or even heard of them being boarded on aircraft yet?

Farewell to "jumpstart."
