airline food sucks.
i usually make an effort to avoid it.
but a day-flight from NY to israel means many hours without food, so gidon gave me a great tip – tell the airline you are hindu.

without giving it much thought i converted to hinduism (by changing my profile on continental’s website).

several advantages to flying as a hindu:

• the food sucks less
• you get the tray before all the other passengers
• if you eat quickly (which i do) you can return the tray without waiting for the cart to come by..

i don’t know what the ethicist would say (i don’t intend to ask), but i assume it is a minor offense
