What Do The Flight Crew Eat?
Generally speaking, flight crews don’t share the same food while working. This may seem strange, but actually makes a lot of sense once it’s explained.
In case of food poisoning, the crew needs to still be able to function. That’s why the pilot receives a first-class meal, while the co-pilot receives a business class one; these meals are always comprised of different ingredients so that there’s no chance that both of them will fall ill at once.
