Qantas domestic economy meals

...there is no special meal that guarantees meat protein...

... keeping blood sugars in check.

What about a diabetic meal?

Im not diabetic, so i want the dessert, which is fine if you eat protein first, skip bread/pasta/rice.

But a good friend is diabetic and having seen that the bland low protein meal she received that is not the answer. I was amazed how much more processed and carby the diabetic meal was.

Back in the day the Ansett whYd standard breaky of a real egg, beef sausage, bacon, tomato, mushrooms and a hasbrown was great breaky.

Beef/pork/Lamb (as meatballs, curry/stew, steak) and veg (pumpkin/potato, brocoli, cauliflower, zuchini) would be great for Lunch/Dinner. Offer bread roll for the carb obsessed but the pasta/rice is imo empty calories.

Pumpkin and broccoli are not holiday foods.

Was that the only option?

The Poke salad with chicken is actually quite tasty and better than some of the vego J meals as has a decent portion of protein.

Pumpkin and broccoli are not holiday foods.

I've eaten plenty of broccoli and pumpkin whilst on holidays, amongst my top 5 favourite vegetables provided they accompany meat.

Also not everyone flying is on holidays, many are travelling for work and often relying on onboard meals given work constraints mean they may not have had time to eat before or after.

The other option was beef stroganoff
