Cornflakes.

Dear Delta Airlines,

I really appreciate the service you provide with letting your passengers opt for a special meal. And for the first time on an international flight today, I got one. (When I went to Italy in September, there was a mix-up on the way there, and my return trip was booked with too short of notice to get a special meal.) The chicken and rice for dinner was actually decent, and it was gluten free too.

I just have a few things to point out. The rolls you are serving to everyone else with dinner are not gluten free. Please don't put one on my plate. Even though it was in a little package, it wasn't clearly marked as gluten free or otherwise. It wasn't until I saw everyone else's food (brought out later than mine), that I realized that suspicious roll was just part of the regular fare. Full of gluten.

One more thing: Cornflakes. You know, the ones from Kelloggs that come in the convenient bowl? Those aren't gluten free. They make me sick when I eat them. That's why I didn't eat them this morning.

Otherwise, keep on keepin' on.

PS If you want some suggestions, take your cues from both the Salt Lake City and JFK (New York) airports and sell Food Should Taste Good multigrain chips. Those are so delish. And they are gluten free. Those + trail mix + G2 = a really good meal.

Did I mention I'm in Sweden?

2 taste testers:

  1. Did I mention that I'm exploding with jealousy that you are in my beloved Scandianavia? :)
