In flight meal

Next time you complain about the lack of a free in-flight meal on a U.S. airline, just look what you're missing. In China they generally still serve some sort of snack. Here's one I had on a recent flight to Guangzhou.

None of it stands out as particularly good, or for that matter edible. The "squids lice" (zoom in on the upper left hand package) tastes about as good as it sounds.

See, you learn something new every day. I didn't know squid could even get lice, and now I discover they're a zesty packaged snack. I love the internet! My hat is off to you, sir, for being brave enough to sample said parasitic munchables and provide a flavor report for the rest of us. Great to hear from you guys! The Valentine's Day letter was a scream. I'm still chuckling over line about grocery store aisles full of cold cereal and cultural patrimony. If your happy wanderings ever bring you back to the So Cal motherland, be sure to let us know. Wahoo's Fish Tacos await!
