American Airlines Bistro
Created | Updated Jan 28, 2002
The airline industry is always pursuing innovative methods to save money and minimize the actual amount of real work that gets accomplished. American Airlines, about four years ago, unveiled its newest concoction in the form of the “Bistro.” The “Bistro” is an amalgamation of various food products in a plastic bag, which features the words “Bistro” that are proudly emblazoned on the outside. Closer inspection of the food products unveils a veritable cornucopia of taste sensation.
The menu varies depending upon the time of day when the passenger picks up the Bistro. Some early mornings will greet the Bistro holder with a banana that is so frozen, it feels as though it weighs eight pounds. Included with the banana will be a nut-grain bar of sorts that has enough roughage and fiber to clean out an embalming hose. Alas, the bottom of the bag will reveal a savory libation, usually in the form of bottled water.
The Bistro bag will also conveniently serve as a vomit holder, after the passenger manages to swallow its original contents.
