As Khursten pointed out, airline food is mostly a hit and miss affair. It is just unfortunate that the meals served in this particular flight was a big miss. But you know what? The meal I had on the flight back was a bit hit. I was dissing the poor quality of the food served; not the Filipinos who were serving the meals. The meal itself wasn’t exactly Filipino fare either.
I’m not really a big jam and yoghurt fan. For me to like the jam and the yoghurt served meant that the other food served were that bad. Passing over the ensaymada is just a matter of preference; as I said before, I just don’t like ensaymada. It’s too sweet.

I don’t think that was the scenario with this one. -_-;; Bad food IS bad food. If you had a choice between a dry and gummy adobo over a tender and juicy pot roast, you would choose the latter right? It just so happened that the author rode in a PAL flight that unfortunately served her a bad meal. Is that bad? It was her experience and not her way of trying to diss Filipino flight food altogether.
As for patriotism among others… I cannot say you gave the best examples of patriots. I think you haven’t met enough people to know that in a population, there are always people who just doesn’t feel who they nationally are. I’m not saying the author is as such, but don’t generalize that some nations are patriotic because you saw how Japan has kept their traditions, how Koreans wore red shirts on World Cup, and how Singaporeans blab about how they do things in Singapore, they are already patriotic. One televised national event does not represent all.
As much as this entry also means that one experience does not necessarily count for all experiences for the author.
]]>Pinoy? You just love what’s not pinoy.
Pinoy? That’s what we are.. keep on insulting our own and indulging in what the foreigns consider trash.
I really envy Singaporeans, Japs and Koreans way of patriotism.
and hate Pinoys way of self-levitation.
