Airport food: Seems to have improved a lot but prices still crazy expensive

I've been on the road a lot this past year and with all the time spent at airports, it seems the food I have eaten is greatly improved over the first 35 years I traveled.

- Is it better quality restaurants?
- Needing to improve since it is so expensive?
- Am I just immune to shitty food and tolerate it?
- I have poor taste?
- I'm so hungry I would eat dog shit if they served it?
- I know some secret high class places for special people I go to?
- I think Airline Lounges serve good food for free?
- I drink too much and have no idea what the hell I am eating?

I'm currently sitting on an American Airlines flight from Norfolk to Charlotte and will be drinking soon, very soon.

So who is the travel food expert that can set the record straight?

Do you also bring all your own snacks and drinks into a movie theater?

Would not recommend but had an oh crap moment earlier this month

Back in April I took a road trip to Mexico and grabbed a handful of airplane bottles of bourbon to take with me as there's no decent whiskey in the town we stay in

Fast forward to earlier this month and I'm unpacking at an airbnb and there are these airplane bottles still in my backpack that I guess I forgot about

So I guess not taking fluids out going through TSA-pre gets them through or maybe an oversight at the airport?

Either way completely unintentional but was like finding a $20 bill in your winter coat pocket thats been sitting in the closet all summer

Hell, if someone saved $10/month in movie theater junk per month (much less movie theater tickets) and $100/month of airport junk per month, after 40 years you'd have $53k... and get a 5% return on that over that span and you'd have $168k.

Doubtful many people would regret not spending more on airport food or $12 popcorn in exchange for retiring a couple years sooner.

You can carry as many as will fit in a 1qt Ziploc bag.

Mini bottles of alcohol in carry-on must be able to comfortably fit into a single quart-sized bag.

I think for value the closest to civilian prices is a sit down meal. The grab n go stuff is ridiculous. and even at the Hudson, a bag of mini Reese's and a water will be more than 12 bucks. Restaurant meals might be 1.5x normal prices, grab n go is like 3x and Hudson is 3x.

I used to do ads for TGI Friday's and they told me the best TGI Friday's are in Airports -- because it's a stripped down menu to stuff they can cook in five minutes, and simpler dishes because the footprint is smaller, so the cooks are better at making things because they don't have to make 50 different things.

Yeah WTF is the appeal with Garrett's Popcorn?

There was a big line to buy the stuff so I waited and got some. Was OK but not "long line" good. And was stale AF the next day.

$17 bag of popcorn GTFO.
