As someone who flies a lot (or used to before COVID-19), I have eaten my share of in-flight meals. Even though I am not a huge fan of these meals, I understand the difficulty in trying to make good food for an airplane.

After watching a YouTube video titled “How Emirates Makes 225,000 In-Flight Meals a Day” though, I have even more respect for the meals and how much effort goes into them. 225,000 is an astounding number, and it is difficult (probably even impossible) to have quality control for that many.

The YouTube video talks about the processes that occur in making meals (ranging from everything such as cleaning to prepping to cooking), and how big of a scale everything is done for an airline such as Emirates. At least in the video, it seems like everything is kept pretty sanitary and organized, which I found very impressive.

If you have ever been curious about airplane food and want to learn just how it is made, be sure to check out this video from Business Insider. It is only 5 minutes, but you will learn a lot about the industry!
