HoustonChronicle.com - Why fly hungry? Carry on a meal

This is what I want to say: unless you are flying overseas or for longer than 7 hours, I really think you should be able to make it through the flight without eating.

"Pack a snack of carrots or celery with peanut butter to fend off midflight hunger pains." Or just wait a until you land and eat at a proper meal time.

I never did understand the serving of meals on flights that are only a couple hours long. Are people really that on the edge of starvation that they have to eat?

That being said, for long flights? I'd recommend singapore airlines any day. Their food is yummy and their service impeccable.
