"Why #Nutella?"
Because paste consistency food is great in weightlessness
Peanut butter is also loved by astronauts
Soft tortillas too: no crumbs floating around
And all these foods don't need refrigeration
Finally, you need calorie dense foods since storage is at a premium
Eat like an astronaut and have a Nutella tortilla
@benroyce A friend of mine was sailing to the Marquesas from San Diego. Got pulled over by the Mexican Coast Guard. They searched the boat and opened cabinet after cabinet filled with tortillas. Great to have on board for a 30 day passage for all the same reasons they work in space.

@mikej yes!
food limitations and compromises in space are similar to the age of sail

@benroyce We eat fewer weevils these days. Or try to.

@benroyce Nutella contains palm oil, though.
@Eetschrijver @benroyce
We use this one: no palm oil and more hazelnuts. And better taste. -

@benroyce they don't seem to worry about carrying useless weight.

@benroyce they don't seem to worry about carrying useless weight.
packing for a trip, deciding on what to bring or not is always a thing. and then you come home and wonder why you packed half the crap you bought with you

@benroyce If I'm correct, back then they carried personal poo bags with them and apparently the seals on these bags weren't exactly of Tupperware quality.

imagine if they jettisoned it in space
little freeze dried bits of astronaut poo orbiting the earth forever

@benroyce Amused that some of the most expensive meals in history (according to cost of mass lifted higher in gravity well, naturally) are poor-people staples. PB+J burritos are well known round this household.

Bad diet for shitting though. Our gut works best with bulky low energy density food. Peristalsis requires something to work on! Also your gut needs walking around and general motion to work right. I bet lots of digestive problems up there.

@benroyce Could probably manage a sticky sort of chili, stew, gumbo, or chowder. So long as it is gluelike in its propensity to not spawn little liquid droplets.
