Cheap childlike candy bar bought at the airport. We're talking Snickers here. I don't usually eat this crap, and one bar usually lasts the entire (round) trip, with some of it getting discarded. But, oh that first bite! It lets me know I'm flying today . . .

Mine's kind of lame...but guilty pleasure is a long shower.
When I'm at home or at my local gym, everything always seems rushed. When I'm traveling and at a hotel, I enjoy taking a nice long hot shower either in the mornings and/or in the evenings to unwind.

On the flip side, grabbing a bar seat at Gary Danko when they open around 5PM after having flown east-west transcon and landing mid-afternoon. Early dinner in SF when my stomach says feed me. Followed by an Irish coffee at the Buena Vista.
Alternatively, breakfast at Bar Pinotxo in BCN of salchicha, ensalada and cava.

Buying a water bottle post-security when I should've just refilled the one I recently tossed.
Calamansi juice on SEAsia LCCs- rare that I go for non-100% juice versions, but that one nearly always works.
More broadly, street food anywhere, for my gullet is oh so unwelcoming to the idea. It's an important part of my travels, so I deal with it, I think...
