Moslem Meal

TEKASM (Try Every Korean Air Special Meal).  Flying often as I do on Korean Air, I’ve grown weary of the standard food offerings, certainly the bibimbap (see most recently 7.025 Bibimbap), even the meals on business class (see most recently 7.039 Sauteed Cod Fillet).  Recently, I discovered that Korean Air offers a range of “special meals” available upon advance order.  I’ll attempt to try every one, 20 in all.  Though anticipating that the food won’t be all that special, it’ll be about the exploration, better to be surprisingly blah than predictably meh.

The Moslem Meal was crap.

As the world struggles to deal with childhood obesity, with the overconsumption of sugar-sweetened beverages being a major contributing factor, one simple intervention is to provide kids with easily accessible clean drinking water.

On my way back to Manila, following a weekend in Seoul (see previously 7.110 Grilled Sirloin Strip).
