Taking pics of food on planes.
Any other FTers do this? I've chipped in a bit to http://www.airlinemeals.net/ but the thread about taking pictures in lounges (which I've also done) got me wondering who else photographs their food.

I've done it once, of the meal served in economy on SQ 63 (BKK-SIN), a 90-minute lunchtime flight, just to show it to my fellow Americans who (like me) mostly fly US domestic economy, where you're lucky to get a granola bar or animal crackers on a 6-hour transcon. For the record, SQ served a cold salad with large pieces of squid, hot chicken stir-fried with vegetables and white rice, a tasty enough slice of chocolate cake, water, white wine, coffee, and a warm roll. Mr. Megatop gave me a funny look when I whipped out the camera, but I assured him it was all a perfectly normal thing to do.

I sometimes do, although usually when the seat allows and I don't have a stranger thinking I am weird! Usually a privacy screen or what not makes it easy....

Yep, I take meal pictures on most flights and then submit them to AirlineMeals.net . Never had to explain myself to anyone regarding this (nor do I intend to
) .
At the same time, gets a little boring taking pretzel pics on those damn RJs, so I usually only take a picture if some kind of real food is being served.
