Roasted chickpeas I second! Also edamame too!!

I loved your questions :)

People seem to really obey the lines for priority vs not - I think mostly because they fear being shamed as everyone in line is watching!

It also always intrigued me why some people dress up so well or even wear heels or clothes that seem uncomfortable for a long journey. I always felt like airplane travel is like a long road trip, no one cares what you wear. Just be comfy!

Can we get edamame on the plane please? Granted they make a mess... or pistachios, are pistachios banned nuts? My best plane story is thirty-five years old or more. A flight in a rickety plane in Myanmar (I prefer to call it Burma, but OK). Old plane, a DC-something, shaky weather, potholed landing strip. We still land elegantly. Then we walk down the steps onto the tarmac, I turn around and see the pilot coming out. One-eyed, with a patch, ramrod... and well... seasoned. Formed RAF it turned out. I can only guess in what war...
