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?

I have been using a credit card for gas since the early 70s, Shell or Phillips. But not for a ****ing soda out of a vending machine or fish sandwich.

A couple years ago I had an 8 hour layover in Dallas. Ate at this “BBQ” restaurant because it looked like I could chill in there a bit.

It might have been the worst food I’ve ever had ever.

From Charlotte? You could have drove faster. Are you headed back to Phoenix?

To one of your questions, yes, airport lounges are a good value if you travel a lot. However, overcrowding has become the norm lately, so they're not the quiet escape they once were.
My rule is if I'm hanging in an airport for over two hours, and I usually added plenty of connection time when I travel internationally and there will be more than two hops, the lounges are so worth it. Mrs. Glorydayz was introduced to the United lounge on our trip in June and she gave it two thumbs up so I know it's a good value...
