Snacks you take on a flight

I've never found long haul a problem. The food provided is usually more than adequate.
An exception was a night flight from Kuala Lumpur where I didn't get a proper meal for ten hours. I didn't realise at the time that I could have asked the cabin crew for a snack in between.0 -

Not all English bread is made by the Chorleywood method!
How about Artisan breads and sourdough bread, for example?
I wouldn't choose to eat anything on board a short haul flight. Nothing worse than someone sat next to you chewing their face off. Plenty of eateries and restaurants in the departure lounge to grab a bite to eat before boarding if you're hungry.0 -
I take a small jar of hot pepper sauce and a couple of limes on most flights.
I only ever drink booze on planes so the sauce is for the first couple of Bloody Mary's and the limes are for the remaining G+Ts.
Very few airlines provide either.
If I'm peckish I usually ask the stewardess to bring me some nibbles.0 -
If necessary, we get a Boot's meal deal, depending on the time of the flight. Just returned from a B.A flight from Las Vegas, and had one of the worst breakfasts ever. A horrible omelette accompanied by a slice of tomato and a couple of nasty wedges of potato. Truly dreadful. B.A long haul food does not impress me in the slightest, compared to Emirates and Singapore Airlines.0

Pringles.
On board they cost about £7.95 for a tiddly packet so I like to look smug with my big stack Aldi pack costing 89p.I don't like morning people. Or mornings. Or people.0
