There were two meal services during the flight – the first was a snack and light refreshment served after take-off and the second was lunch, Japan Airlines said in a statement. The snack option for non-vegan passengers consisted of seared tuna with a Moroccan-style aubergine salad, cheese with orange salsa, and a baguette, per the airline’s menu and Chari’s experience.
Lunch was “barely seasoned” spaghetti, according to the passenger.
A company I worked at had 2 vegetarians and 3 Vegans. At our company party, which was a black tie affair, we watched as everyone else had the option of a nice cut of steak or salmon complete with petit potatoes and asparagus. The vegan and vegetariam option was half a block of cold tofu, sliced into 4 pieces with soy sauce drizzled on it and a piece of broccoli. Im sure half of everyone else plate was vegetarian but that wasn’t my battle to fight.
Looking back now I realize we were a lone edamame bean away from the saddest Soy three ways dish.
