Keeping To A Food Theme,

a friend of ours has just purchased tickets to fly home,


 but here is one aspect of air travel that I never thought would appeal to non-aeroplane travellers, the in-flight food,

but it appears that there is indeed a market for home delivered in-flight food as Air Food One which is a food delivery service in Germany found out, it exclusively caters to people who happen to love airline food, the service is being provided by a German grocery store in collaboration with the company that makes meals for Lufthansa, it includes weekly home delivery of meals that are supposed to be ‘business-class quality’, on line grocery store Allyouneed.com noticed there was a demand for air plane food from its clients, so it teamed up with airline caterers LSG to satisfy their cravings,
on Wednesday of every week, customers enrolled in the Air Food One program will receive a meal that matches the business class menu currently available on planes, apart from its business class quality, the food has another strong point – it can be frozen until you’re ready to throw it in the oven, making it an interesting alternative to take-away, the meals are 'inspired by air plane food,' Allyouneed spokesman Max Thinius said, 'the idea is to invent meals that are prepared fresh and just needs to be heated in the oven, so LSG prepares all the fresh food, we deliver it cool but not frozen and if you heat it up you have a meal which is mostly like you cooked yourself, depending on how well you cook', so far the meals are only available in Germany, but if there is sufficient demand from other countries I guess the business could take off.
