Food in an airplane
For the past few years I have ceased to eat passenger economy class food &# 171; Fish or Chicken&# 187;, because:
- in economy class food of low quality;
- I adhere to healthy vegetable nutrition. Requested from sodes, green and black tea, fast food, artificial additives e, from refined, meat and fish food.
Therefore, I usually take my favorite meal on board in a container (salad, porridge, fruit, chocolate) and it does not create additional inconveniences. Just becomes a useful habit with time.
Set of dinner products (dinner) in the aircraft
Your favorite food, except liquid food (juices, water, soups) you can always take on board, even if you fly the airline &# 171; victory&# 187;.
I also try not to eat in institutions of airports, because they usually have small portions of lettuce or second dishes for decent money, and the fact that cheap (fast food, pizza) is very harmful and can be really not good.
Often at airports there are no points with fresh juices, only coffee, lemonade, gluten yeast or margarine baking, in general, nothing healthy.
How often in a state of hunger in the journey, we go to a little wrong cafe, restaurant, overpaying money and pushing out a quick meal?
Enough to bring with you some apples, healthy snacks, a bottle of water or any familiar food to the airport and T.O. The issue of hunger on the trip will be resolved.
Public catering establishments (Vegetarian, Indian, European and DR.) at affordable prices

Alone prepared breakfast in the Philippines
As in the cafe, restaurants often do not make good portions of salads, second dishes to fit in healthy, season them are not very useful refined oils and God forbid with glutamate, and juices often diluted with harmful concentrates in Asia.
I decided to prepare myself and close on the travels myself.
You can buy products from local, in the markets, in grocery stores, in supermarkets.
By the way, thanks to independent cooking in different countries and the constant availability of certain specific products, like curry leaves, green papaya, coconuts, I learned to perfectly cook some delicious Asian dishes, sort of: &# 171; Papaaya Salat&# 187;, &# 171; Dhal Curry&# 187;, &# 171; Mint Chutney&# 187;, &# 171; Coconut sambol&# 187; other.
Now I am preparing them sometimes in Russia, buying a special desktop cooker for coconuts.
Sri Lankan dishes that I learned to do.
Compare grocery stores for the price and quality
As you know in our shops, there are shops where everything is very cheap, like &# 171; Pyaterochka&# 187;, &# 171; ruble boom&# 187;, &# 171; Magnet&# 187;, and there are more expensive stores or premium &# 171; ABC taste&# 187;, &# 171; Crossroads&# 187;, &# 171; 811&# 187; and etc.
On the trip, the same, do not be lazy to enter different shops to check prices for you need for you. So, the price tag every time can go 15-30% lower in terms of the cost.
Markets
Advantage of buying products on the market:
- You can often get discounts on the products, especially if you often buy in the same people;
- More fresh, untreated chemicals, organic products rather than in the store;
- huge selection of products;
- low prices;
- deeper recognition of the country.

Safety regulations. How not to poison travel?
In the first years of travel, the Asian countries have been poisoning, a high temperature that has not descended for a long time and other cases.
After such a hard experience, I take up a few rules for travel.
I would recommend following the following rules:
- Do not drink water from the crane or cooked on the street, in the eaters of drinks, Unless this is not the 20 countries where it is possible to drink (Iceland, Switzerland, Sweden, United Kingdom and others.). Especially be attentive to drinking water in the third world countries, in Cambodia, in Laos, in India, Haiti. There it is the most polluted, you should drink only the best bottled water from the stores.
- Do not have a lot of oily food on the journey. There is a risk to poison, get sick.
- Wearing a bottle with water. Water &# 8212; the most necessary thing in the journey. Let’s not forget that water &# 8212; Main Gold. She will help quench thirst, sometimes to solve the issue of hunger, she can be washed with a dirty wound and others. Also, a water bottle will help you save time and money on buying water. This will help ecology, because plastic is now in the world ocean 6 times more than plankton, which is destructive.
- Do not experiment with exotic food, Especially with fat, not very attractive and edible in appearance and taste for you.
- Thoroughly wash products with clean water (for third world countries);
- Purchase Filter Water IonizerAQUASPECTR MINERAL (in promotion: Health You will receive a 5% discount) or analogs. This filter cleans water from chlorine and heavy metals, ionizes water and destroys pathogenic bacteria. Very convenient to use &# 8212; It you just need to throw in a water bottle (up to 5 liters). I use these filters on travel and stationary ionizer at home since 2016.
- Wear your spoon In journey. This rule is especially true if you do not eat any seafood because of the parasites contained in them as I am and if you do not make vaccinations, going to third world countries, where you try local food, coconuts.
- Have always a first-aid kit Of the most necessary drugs, it seems: from the disorder of the stomach and poisoning (activated carbon, polyfeny, smecta, etc.), antipyretic means.

How to choose a good (best) restaurant?
The best restaurants of major cities in the world are in a large selection of the site Eater &# 8212; www.Eater.COM /
So, in large cities, like Barcelona, Amsterdam, Singapore, Istanbul, Paris and other major megalopolis, you will not be hungry.
Eater site.COM can be trusted.
Come for dinner to local
New Eatwith resource.COM is rapidly gaining popularity on which you can sign up for lunches and dinners to local home chefs.
Wonderful service allows you to save, delicious to eat homemade straight, get acquainted with the local culture, is not alone and find friends.
In my opinion, eat delicious home meal in a foreign city – an interesting idea. Cons of this site: it is not yet very promoted and offers only from the largest capitals of the world.
