Is airplane food bad on purpose? Historian Richard Foss takes us through the turbulent history of food in flight, from extravagant meals aboard zeppelins, to the flaming Baked Alaskas once served en route to Singapore, to the truth about mediocre food service on planes today. Plus, Rebecca Rupp tells us how carrots won the Trojan War, Amanda Herbert shares a recipe for the world’s first macaroni and cheese, and we head to Bogotá for a lesson on great barbecue.

Get the recipe for Colombian-Style Asado Pork Chops here.

Amanda Herbert is part of the research team for EatMedieval, a collaboration between the Institute for Medieval and Early Modern Studies, Durham and Blackfriars Restaurant, Newcastle.
