Foods You Shouldn’t Eat on a Plane I always encourage travelers to bring their own food on the plane, it’s typically cheaper and you get exactly what you want. Here are a few foods I would suggest not bringing! Instant Soups – not only do Flight Attendants typically not have hot water on their beverage carts, do you really want boiling hot water in a bowl when turbulence could hit at any time. Noisy Foods – you don’t have the row to yourself – remember that! I’m sure your seat mate does not want to hear you crunch… crunch… crunching away! Messy Foods – you have a small tray table with a few napkins… and plastic forks and minimal elbow room! I’m sure you can just imagine the mess now. SMELLY Foods – are the worst of the worst! Do you think everyone that you are trapped in a metal tube with really wants to smell you tuna sandwich? Just be mindful of those around you! Peanuts – I’m guilty of this one… I love peanuts but due to the growing number of peanut allergies in the world… I have to leave them home!
