When you’re a distinguished scientist at Google, flying first-class on a five-hour flight, you might expect a culinary experience befitting your status – or at least, something palatable. However, for Peyman Milanfar, his recent United Airlines journey turned into a surprisingly public critique of airline dining.
Taking to X (formerly Twitter), Milanfar shared his profound disappointment after being served what he dramatically described as ‘3D-printed mystery meat’ during his first-class meal. The experience left such a sour taste (pun intended) that his concluding advice was unequivocal: ‘Highly recommend flying private’.
It seems even the most esteemed professionals aren’t immune to the trials of modern air travel, especially when it comes to the highly anticipated (or dreaded) in-flight meal. Milanfar’s post quickly resonated, highlighting a common grievance among travelers: the often-underwhelming quality of airline food, even in premium cabins.
While we can only speculate about the true nature of the ‘mystery meat’, his strong reaction serves as a vivid reminder that for some, the cost of a first-class ticket doesn’t always guarantee a first-class dining experience. Perhaps it’s time for airlines to re-evaluate their catering, or at least invest in some better marketing for their 3D-printed culinary innovations!
