Food trends are changing- healthier are the most requested menu items for flights all around the world. The food we consume has a direct reflection and reaction to our behavior and health.

Food must provide energy, enable passengers and crew balance for their irregular eating and sleep patterns. Performance in their job requirements, in their sharpness when working on important business agreements all have a close relationship to what we eat, when it is eaten and how it is prepared.
The effects of altitude, cabin pressure, and humidity all must be considered to keep passengers and crew refreshed and energized when they have a full day in front of them, or provide them with foods that will enable them to get good rest when needed, even if the clock says otherwise.
High Protein shakes, ancient grains, fresh sauces, and varying uses of seasoning are key. Sit in and take away a wealth of new information to better serve you, your passengers and crew.
