“’What’s the deal with airline food’ That line seems to be one of those that people immediately think of if you mention stand-up comedians, but I can’t say I’ve ever actually heard the joke. What is the deal with it, exactly? Everyone knows it isn’t the best food, but I can think of places that serve worse food on a regular basis. But even that’s something of a moot point now. With the airlines having trouble staying in the black even before the recession hit, I haven’t gotten an actual meal on-board an airplane in over five years – and even that flight was trans-Atlantic! I wish they’d give me food on an airplane more often. I hate having to pack my own snacks.”

“Jim, you’re my co-pilot. You shouldn’t be eating during the flight anyway.”
