Could you eat 4 times within 16 hours? Maybe with the time difference and because we travelled on two different planes, we were offered 4 meals within 16 hours, even in the middle of the night.

The first time they came round, I was very interested in the fresh Arabian food. The second time, I could still eat a little. However, I couldn’t touch the third and fourth meal. I felt sick as soon as I saw the food.

Anyway, when the air hostesses offered me the menu and woke me up to ask me whether I wanted anything to eat, I could only smile at them and shake my head.

I really found it strange as to why people need to eat so many times? Why people have to be woken in the middle of the night to eat? Could you eat 4 times within 16 hours?
