Is there anything you would not eat to avoid starvation?

Post by Sulako »

The only things I wouldn't eat to survive would be Lisa, my mom, dad, brother or sister.

Everything else is fair game :bear: and probably delicious anyway.

If the chips were down, would you be a picky eater?

Funny you should ask. No I haven't had to eat people but was recently thinking of the movie Alive. If I was in that situation tho, I would rather eat my family before eating a stranger. At least somewhere in the heavens they could know that they helped me stay alive and they didn't die in vain. As for what I wouldn't eat, probably McDonalds..just kidding. I wouldn't eat...no forget it.. this is just gonna get gross.

I like Les Strous: dog poop on meat, still fair game.

For me, I'd rather starve than eat an MRE.

Pasta.........just because you can eat it doesn't mean its food.

It is always a good idea to let the Pax know that you have survival rations in the survival kit .So if you have an off airport landing they do not eat YOU :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

As this is currently hypothetical, then: Uni, and natto both of which i loathe - one for the smell, and the other, for what it is.
I will concede that if the chips were down, I'd be a little less picky...

Actually, we have a lot of female pilots here. And no, I haven't had one yet that I felt I could safely make that joke with.
