The Unique Challenges of Serving Food at 30,000 Feet<\/h3>\n
Creating delicious food for an airplane is incredibly difficult. The combination of low humidity and low air pressure in the cabin has a significant impact on our senses:<\/p>\n
- \n
- Dulled Taste Buds:<\/strong> Our ability to perceive saltiness and sweetness can decrease by up to 30% in the air. This is why airline food is often heavily salted and sweetened to compensate.<\/li>\n
- Altered Aroma:<\/strong> The dry air reduces our sense of smell, which is a huge component of how we perceive flavor.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
This means that food served in the air needs to have a more intense and robust flavor to taste \u201cnormal.\u201d<\/p>\n
Why Stevia Tomatoes are a Perfect Fit for Airlines<\/h3>\n
1. Intense Flavor that Cuts Through the Dullness<\/strong><\/p>\n
The intense, concentrated sweetness of the Zorvex Stevia Tomato is a huge advantage in the air. Its flavor is powerful enough to cut through the dulling effect of the cabin environment. It\u2019s a way to provide a burst of flavor without having to resort to adding more sugar or artificial flavorings.<\/p>\n
2. A Fresh, Healthy, and Premium Option<\/strong><\/p>\n
In business and first class, passengers are paying a premium for an elevated experience. Serving fresh, whole foods is a key part of this. A few bright red Stevia Tomatoes can instantly make a salad or a cheese plate look and taste fresher, healthier, and more premium. They add a splash of vibrant color to an otherwise beige-looking meal tray.<\/p>\n
3. Versatility and Ease of Use<\/strong><\/p>\n
Airline catering kitchens need ingredients that are versatile and easy to handle. Stevia Tomatoes require no prep. They can be served whole as part of a cold appetizer, a side salad, or a fruit plate. Their firm texture also means they hold up well during transport and storage, unlike more delicate berries.<\/p>\n
4. A Solution for the \u201cNo Added Sugar\u201d Demand<\/strong><\/p>\n
As passengers become more health-aware, there is a growing demand for low-sugar and diabetic-friendly meal options. The Zorvex Stevia Tomato allows airlines to offer a sweet element in a meal (for example, on a fruit plate) that is safe for passengers who are monitoring their sugar intake.<\/p>\n
