Rumack: What was it we had for dinner tonight?
Elaine Dickinson: Well, we had a choice of steak or fish.
Rumack: Yes, yes, I remember, I had lasagna.

Rumack: The life of everyone on board depends upon just one thing: finding someone back there who can not only fly this plane, but who didn't have fish for dinner.

Seven people who got food poisoning from eating tuna at a Subway restaurant at the Vancouver International Airport were taken to the hospital as a precaution.

The majority of those who fell ill on Friday afternoon were airport employees, while one patient was a traveller, said Justin Karasick, a spokesman for Coastal Health. They all ate at the same Subway in the international terminal on the secured side of the airport.

The patients are suspected of contracting scombroid poisoning, which "occurs due to high levels of histamine in raw or undercooked fish. That's usually because the fish hasn't been stored at the right temperature," he explained.

Symptoms, which appear quickly after eating the fish, include flushing, sweating, headaches, and sometimes nausea and vomiting.

No joke,
In our Ops Manual at the airline, its states the Capt and FO can't eat the same thing, unless it's 6 hours apart.

Isn't that to keep the Flight Attendants safe? :p

If you've been on any American carrier in the last 10 years, it's more to keep us safe!

May be not safe, but rested!

When I flew corporate, it was company policy for the crew members not to eat the same thing. It always came down to the captain ordering first, then the f/o to scramble because his choice was taken. I flew with a ex USMC guy for years who would always ask as you were pro using the menu, what you were going to have, he then would order what you wanted. This went on till one day he took my choice and came down with a case of mud butt on the flight a few hours later. I never laughed so hard! He never again ordered what I wanted!

Most catering we get are ham or turkey sandwiches.
The only problem is they give us both the same potato salad.
