Outrage over the dish came from both the passenger and most internet users, who laughed on social media at the lavish presentation of the airline’s simple vegan menu. Chari has a banana on a plate with beautiful cutlery and chopstickswhich undoubtedly caught his attention and even amused him.

“Before today’s takeoff my flight attendant confirmed that I had ordered VGML and that my breakfast was a banana, so I mistakenly assumed he meant the breakfast included a banana,” Kris wrote on the FlyerTalk travel forum on Aug. 21. February.

“When he served the banana after take off I thought it was just a disappointing appetizer, but it was actually the whole meal served!” explained the man who was flying from Jakarta, Indonesia to the Japanese capital.

Soon after the banana arrived, Kris told a steward that it was “quite surprised” for the simplicity of the dish, to which the clerk didn’t have much else to say.

Still, it was a good dish

Despite the disappointment of the diner, the banana was”really good”. In fact, Chari called it “one of the best” he’s tried recently.

It’s a little insulting to receive only one banana while others are offered a much more substantial and flavorful menu,” he told Insider, adding, “It seems especially important given the growth in the number of vegans and vegetarians.”

Still in conversation with Insider, an airline representative apologized to the passenger.”for not being able to meet expectations”.

It’s worth pointing out that the airline’s menu consisted of two dishes, one for breakfast and the other for lunch, for both vegans and carnivores.

Now many may be wondering what the vegan lunch menu was like. Chari described it as a “freshly seasoned spaghetti‘, although he admitted that it was much better than the “insubstantial” plated banana.

The airline’s non-vegan options included grilled beef tenderloin, ratatouille cheese omelette, grilled salmon, and chicken sausage.

The woman was trapped in a plane full of people along with a passenger who had no better idea – or a delusional idea – than to eat a whole barbecued pork chop, with fries and a corn and egg sandwichwhich he brought neatly to its place inside a huge pizza box.

“There’s no way this guy is going to eat a whole rack of shelves on this plane,” Tolland fumed, providing damning photographic evidence, posting it to her Twitter account, and the bird’s social network exploded to the point that the image already has more than 5,500,000 hits.
