The best meals in the sky
The elaborate meals served aboard Air Force One are prepared inside a special kitchen at Joint Base Andrews. Each entree is vacuum sealed and frozen on the ground; the cooking process is completed on stoves, ovens and microwaves in the plane’s galley kitchen.
The president can order just about any meal he’d like. The only catch: Because there’s no fryer on the plane, the fries served up by Air Force One tend to be a bit soggy. Credit: Pete Souza/The White House
Business Insider: After a surprise bill, a former Trump administration official discovered every passenger who boards Air Force One is expected to pay for food — even if they don't eat
* Political officials who fly on Air Force One have to pay for their own food — even if they don't eat anything.
* Former Trump administration official Omarosa Manigault recently revealed this fact on an episode of "Celebrity Big Brother."
* Manigault once received a $23 bill after a flight.
"There's no free ride in the government."
So says former Trump administration official Omarosa Manigault. On an episode of "Celebrity Big Brother," Manigault revealed what it was like to fly Air Force One.
"You pay for the food," she told co-stars Ross Mathews, Marissa Jaret Winokur, and James Maslow on Wednesday's episode of the CBS show.
Manigault went on: "I got a bill and it was, like, $23 dollars and I was like, 'I didn't even eat anything.' So I called the military aide and was like, 'Why am I getting a bill?' and he's like, 'Well, if you even consume the snacks, you get a flat fee.'"

4 "likes" in that small quote!!! This one is unimpressive.
Why does the photograph accompany this article depict former Preisdetrn Obama? The man is like a nightmare. I find photographs of him very triggering. Please stop
anon:
you are readily triggered and perhaps ought not to go to news sources, for in America, a former president is often mentioned, depicted...
Is that food served on the plane halal?
Aizino ,
"Halal? You mean kosher"
In halal , food must not be pigs or alcohol or contain any of it's products , all meats must be prepared according to scriptures .
In kosher food animals (such as pork, shellfish [both Mollusca and Crustacea], and most insects, with the exception of certain species of kosher locusts), mixtures of meat and milk, and the commandment to slaughter mammals and birds according to a process known as shechita.
Kosher dose not equal halal
