Ho-san

You know, there was once a time not long ago when watermelon was served on some flights. Yes it is true that before the year zero (aka 9/11) many airlines carried fresh fruit! I remember flying on Midwest Airlines before the dark days of air travel when the flight attendant to my delight brought me a fresh pineapple filled with assorted fruit and yes, watermelon. I remember looking out the window while enjoying each delectable bite and thinking, life is good. Ah but those days are long gone. Now you’re lucky if you get a tiny bag of hard mini-pretzels and a grunt.
