After a further 14 hours overnight flight and nagging support of Lufthansa flight attendants I'm finally back home and look forward to things that have become something special, "Real bread, rolls on the weekend and good, German toilet paper (do not even ask rather only as much about this: Chill 0.5-ply). We learn again to appreciate things that are actually commonplace. An interesting experience.
Another interesting experience I have been boycotted, the drinking of tomato juice on airplanes. I do not like tomato juice and had neither the occasion seen not to make something even to fathom that mystery why tomato juice tastes in aircraft apparently much better than usual I recently read a study that said that consumption of tomato juice to about 4% in aircraft takes place, whereas as orange juice is administered less than 1% in the plane. What questions arise from this?
- Do the airlines to cover these massive needs own plantations or tomato juice under contracts with manufacturers around World?
- Who has the time and interest to conduct such studies or to read?
- Now what are the real reasons behind the consumption of crushed tomatoes with salt and pepper in the tight economy seats on the plane, where one well can be happy and keep your ears with your knees?
As far as I remember there were several reasons, including that a flight is something special, where you sometimes drink something that you would not normally buy (because it is so disgusting), or the pure envy the people who really want to drink, a drink the other. What was the trigger for me now, I do not remember exactly, but probably Reason # 3: curiosity. Is there any truth to this mystery? Particularly since more and if and when the red juice is served, experience severe turbulence and it is hoped secretly that the plate taxis now hopefully tilt equal to all the juice on the white shirts so the aircraft will look like as if you were a guest at a vampire film shooting . After two Frenchmen in the seats next to me now had their orders, "Orange Juice", the lady looked at me with a look that seemed to were called: "Do you drink as well?" I just said "tomato". The absence of subject and predicate made clear they are reluctant, her immense forehead wrinkled into a fresh harvested beet fields, she straightened the upper Council study glasses and then asked: "tomato juice" had seen through me cold. I nodded and added the obligatory loud but grammatically disastrous Döner ordering phrase "with everything" (The "no onions" but I've saved). I tried the pepper unterzurühren what was only with difficulty, and tried. I's nice find! I will order it for the next flight! But buy at home? Iiiiiiihhhh .... Nope, still let ma ( Did the link found )
Finally, a few interesting things to think about:
- Recently I evenings after work on the Ruta Panamericana in the left lane in the dark center come to meet a cyclist. Without light. I know you have to read this sentence ... 2x without words.
- Why is the left turn lane at traffic lights often to the right of the straight tracks?
saludooos!
