Caught the first flight out this AM….only a short hop to TPA and then changed to a flight to BNA…just noticed the slightly obese couple (I’m being kind because it’s early) seated across the aisle and one row forward….digging into the Taco Bell bag they brought aboard.

 

Does TB offer a breakfast menu?  Maybe….I never “head south of the TB Border” to indulge in true Mexican Cuisine. 

 

Possibly this is a bag of scraps left over from their watching last night’s Monday Night Football game between the FINS & JETS?  Good game…no, correction... a GREAT game….we were sitting in the stands until the last touchdown. 

 

It was painful trying to get out bed and head for the airport this AM! 

 


Back to the couple on the flight...hey have withdrawn something from the bag and it appears to be some sort of very large burrito or a small synthetic fireplace log….no it’s a burrito ‘cause they ripped it in half and lettuce and gooey stuff is spilling out (no knives allowed on this flight and apparently TB doesn’t offer “splitting/sharing services” on this particularly menu item...so you've got to take matters into your own hands, if you're planning to share). 

 

WOW…and they are also dipping their respective portions into a large order of refried beans (Holy Frijoles).

 

“Some basic upper and lower GI recollections and reflections…after food matter leaves the oral cavity, passing through the esophagus, dumping into the upper and lower sections of the stomach and undergoing approximately two hours of powerful muscle contractions, then the resulting roughly processed food matter is subjected to an absorption process leading into the small…..”

 

…got the picture……oh well, their consumption and digestion of this delectable breakfast adventure isn’t really going to be a problem for me, since this leg of my trip is only 50 minutes and then I change planes.

 

Buen provecho amigos and hasta con gas!
