A passenger posted a video this month making fresh pasta from scratch at her seat. She walks step-by-step through the process: pouring flour, adding eggs, and kneading the dough into a ball — as though she were in the kitchen.
She uses utensils and ingredients she brought through TSA. And she shows just how practical it is not to suffer through the food you’re given in coach. Meanwhile, passengers around her largely ignored the stunt, as she calmly mixes and shapes her dough to make gnocchi.

Making the dough is one thing. Heating would be something else completely. Battery‑powered heat‑producing devices are going to be generally banned. You can’t bring ‘seat power appliances’ and just fire them up.
Meanwhile, tray tables and seat surfaces aren’t exactly the hygenic spaces where you want to cook. So I guess you can eat that once you’re done.
The ingredients at least are plausibly legal. Powders are allowed through TSA, though may be subject to extra screening. You can bring fresh eggs in your carry-on, but they’ll be messy if they break.
And speaking of messes, maybe the worst thing here is the cleanup. There won’t be much more than a basic tidy between flights, and odds are your cleaning up of your own space will be incomplete. What are you leaving for the next passenger? This is a mess you can’t really remediate in 30” pitch.
Nonetheless, we’ve seen many such examples of inflight aspiring chefs like the man who cooked steak in a Delta lavatory, the American Airlines passenger who baked bread on a flight to Spain, and the Delta customer who precisely cooked garlic shrimp in the lavatory using a 6 volt battery.
And don’t forget, you can get creative in your hotel room once you land, like the man who turned his bathroom into a kitchen to make beef dinner nachos.

I want to make this video. Scr€w the pax around me. Heck with the cleanup. It gives me pleasure; that is all that is important. Do the eggs have to be in your one quart bag of liquids under 100ml?
I should say I am speechless, but this absolutely gross 5 minutes of fame video, has dumbed down the rest of culture so much that I kind of tend to look forward to all the fake AI generated bear cuddling the fawn videos, before tuning into Bald Eagle reality Aftermath of the bloody carcass remains being wrestled and scattered across the plains of those lovely little bear fawn AI generated images.
Mass culture Reality is not real anymore as Mass Culture media has not been for some time now too, it seems. It’s a conundrum distraction of the dumb, but this is what the low information people or our world are choosing to believe when it comes to selecting those leaders they wish to follow.
OK, I looked it up. Eggs are allowed and not part of your quart-bag limit, it appears.
