Airport food worse than you think

Updated

There are about a million (mostly bad) jokes about airline food, but if you're traveling over the next several days you might want to pack a lunch or take your chances on the plane.

It turns out the food served in airport eateries and grab-and-go stands are worse than what is served on the plane. And not just in terms of taste or nutrition.

According to USA Today, eating a sandwich from an airport restaurant could make you very sick. The article reports, "tuna salad and turkey sandwiches stored at dangerously warm temperatures, raw meat contaminating ready-to-eat foods, rat droppings and kitchens lacking soap for workers to wash hands." Delicious.
