It was an unfair challenge. One thing that made no sense was how the
chef for the airline made a big point out of the need to provide extra
seasoning for airline food because the tongue doesn't pick up the
flavor as strongly when in the air (and at lower air pressure.) Yet
they served the food on the ground. So it was a setup if someone
actually listened to those instructions and provided extra seasoning,
since the food was bound to have too strong a taste when served on the
ground.
