Steeds meer mensen gaan als vegan door het leven. In de meeste gevallen wordt het steeds makkelijker, omdat er inmiddels genoeg vegan restaurants én plantaardige producten zijn. Alhoewel vliegtuigen op een razendsnel tempo door de lucht schieten, blijven ze op het gebied van het serveren van vegan voeding aan boord toch ver achter..
1. Dat blijkt uit deze tweet van Plant Based News.
This is what Kris Chari was served when they decided to order the ‘vegan breakfast’.

2. Sommigen snappen het probleem niet helemaal.
“ooooh I’m vegan and I’m helping everyone so much but I’m still using industry and processed foods that are harmful to the environment for all of my food”
That actually is a vegan breakfast and he should quit pissing and moaning about it

3. Maar laten we eerlijk zijn: één banaan is geen voedende maaltijd.
Let’s be fair and honest: fruits are very good, if not the best breakfast. The only problem with this is maybe that there’s only one banana or fruit. In fact, most meals should look like that: fresh, unprocessed food,which is the most sustainable, healthy, nutritious and cheap.

4. Na de tweet van Plant Based News stroomde nóg meer pogingen tot voedende vegan maaltijden binnen.
On a 12 hour flight with EVA the first two “vegan” meals both had meat products in and I wasn’t offered anything else. I begged for some extra fruit and I was told that wasn’t allowed. Just before landing they brought me a tray of fruit.

5. Of Lufthansa de betekenis van vegan begrijpt? Nou, nee.
Meat sandwich that Lufthansa gave me and they said I was supposed to request a vegan meal earlier but I didn’t see anywhere on the website that I could do that. It sucked, I was super hungry all the way to Germany

6. EeN sTiCkEr MaAkT iEtS nIeT mEtEeN VeGaN!
I’ve been served a non-vegan yoghurt with a vegan sticker on it, luckily I double checked the ingredients because it looked suspicious

7. De definitie van een reddende engel.
I once had the pilot’s lunch packed for him by his wife. The ‘vegan’ meal option had cheese in it. Fortunately the lovely pilot had a wonderful lentil Dahl and was willing to trade.
It was delicious. Thanks mrs pilot— The Magpye (@TansyP) February 22, 2023
8. Kariger wordt het niet.
I got ‘vegan sandwich’ – it was just bread and slices of tomato. That’s all

9. Of toch wel…
I was given a portion of parmesan cheese. And that was supposed to be the entire meal

10. Dit is misschien wel het beste gerecht tot nu toe.
Virgin Atlantic. Plain rice with some burnt roasted veg and a plain rice cake. 😂 pic.twitter.com/pWViUKb7FF

11. Zo dichtbij maar tegelijkertijd zo ver weg…
I’ve had pretty good _almost_ vegan meals on a number of flights. saying _almost_ though because despite the perfect meal, they’ll then also throw in an individually wrapped piece of cheese… seen this with multiple airlines! like soooo close, you almost had it

12. Mocht je nu ooit in één van bovenstaande situaties terecht komen, dan is een dutje al-tijd nog een optie.
The only vegan option they had in my last flight was a nap
