Dried cranberries and raw almonds before landing?!

I like getting gifts. Especially on airplanes. Asiana goes so far as to give first class passengers a gift before landing, like a duffel bag or iPhone case. Then there are airlines that will give you a piece of chocolate before landing. Everyone loves chocolate, right?

And then there’s Lufthansa on my flight on Friday, which gave me… dried cranberries and raw almonds before landing. Lufthansa’s kinda being like that one person in everyone’s neighborhood that gives out packaged baby carrots on Halloween.

I was the only person not to reject them, and that’s mainly because I wanted to see if my eyes were failing me.

The real problem here ... in many cases local customs restrictions would forbid the passenger from bringing the nuts into their country of destination with them!

Some people are so stuck up with what they know, that they won't try anything new. Which seems to be the case here. I never tried dried cranberries and would very much be interested to try them. Perhaps one has to be a bit of a foodie to appreciate these kinds of items. Anyone would like to try fillet of deer instead of fillet of beef...because that is cool. However giving up chocolate for a special fruit..oh noes!

That looks like a great little snack to take with, actually. Pass it this way if you dont want it!
