On San Antonio flights this will mean a BBQ smorgasbord of smoked brisket from Coopers in Llano, Muellers in Taylor, Smittys in Lockhart, and City Market in Luling, plus accompanying ribs. On flights from Chicago I think it's hot dogs or something.
More rude slobs eating stinky, messy things on board airplanes. Geez, I can hardly wait.

Just add a few under-bathed, swarthy software salesmen, several families traveling with half their house as carry on luggage, a live chicken and a pig or two and the only difference between flying in the states and taking the bus or train in the Indian or Colombian countryside is that you are guaranteed a place to sit.
