> Did you understand my posting? Yes. Yes we did. You said “Think about what would happen, if XX% of the passengers get food poisoning.” Which kinda implies that you think it would have somehow disastrous consequences on the plane. While in reality symptomps often don’t appear fast enough for that. You also said “Airplane food is probably one of the safest in the world from this perspective.” for which you provided no source. Is this something you speculate? Or know as a fact? You also said “it was caused by food from the lounge in the airport in Addis Ababa”. And it is quite right pointing it out that you have almost no way you can be certain about that. > I never said I got it on a plane. Nobody says that you said that. We are talking about people who say they got it on the plane because that is what the influencer in question did.

"While in reality symptomps often don’t appear fast enough for that." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japan_Air_Lines_food_poisoning_incident https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japan_Air_Lines_food_poisoning... "for which you provided no source. Is this something you speculate? Or know as a fact?" Logic deduction. In the incidence above the United States Public Health Service led the investigation. Also, a plane may have to make an emergency landing. Trust me. If you run an airline. YOU DON'T WANT THAT. "You also said " You omitted that "I assume (!)" from my sentence. And regards to food safety I was specific about food served on air planes, not in a lounge. "influencer in question did." Yes. And I think this is unlikely.

  Yes, in extreme cases illness can set in within an hour. But a) that isn't the typical case for food poisoning, and b) it isn't clear that even this short of a timeline would be enough for the flight in question as it's less than two hours long
