Question: How Do You Eat on the Airplane?
How do you manage your meals while travelling on the airplane? Even though they serve either vegetarian or non
vegetarian food, the utensils used to prepare the vegetarian food may also been
used to cut meat. So, do you carry your own meals, or how do you manage?

Answer: Better than Anyone Else
Our spiritual master, Srila Prabhupada, instructed us not to take any food, even vegetarian food, cooked by
non-devotees. So we carefully follow his instruction. While the other
passengers are consuming lumps of sin and deepening their entanglement in the
cycle of birth and death, we are eating better than anyone else by relishing
the most sublime and enlivening taste of Krishna prasadam, vegetarian foods
lovingly prepared for and offered to Lord Krishna. This wonderful Krishna
prasadam liberates us from the cycle of birth and death. Meat-contaminated
utensils is another one of the reasons that we bring our own food.
