I’m Ryanair cabin crew & there’s one food choice I’d always avoid from the menu while flying
A RYANAIR employee has revealed their top tips for eating on board - and what they always avoid from the menu.
The airline is well known for its snacks trolley sweeping down the aisles while flying through the skies.
And cabin crew can reportedly earn around £300 a month for flogging treats to hungry travellers - so beware of their overbearing sales pitch.
A member of staff told the that employees are heavily incentivised to sell as much grub as they can to holidaymakers.
But we all know plane food can be quite unappetising once you're thousands of feet in the air.
One flight attendant has now let slip the best and worst items that Ryanair have to offer on board.

Surprisingly, it's the hot beverages which came out on top of the refreshment leaderboard.
The anonymous employee said: "The coffee and hot chocolate are actually quite good, particularly the coffee.
"The coffee is proper filter stuff. I'd drink it."
But for those who enjoy a sweet treat with their brew, it turns out staff rate them at the bottom of the pile - in particular, Twixes.

They continued: "Honestly, the price of a bar of chocolate onboard.
"It's £2.25 for a Twix. I wouldn't go for that. I would bring my own with me."
The price of one of the 75g chocolate bars from Tesco is 80p, meaning Ryanair have almost tripled the fee.
And another employee warned holidaymakers expecting to be fed on evening flights not to rely on the airline for their nosh.
They explained: "A few weeks ago I did a flight in the evening.
"Ryanair stocks the bar first thing in the morning, so on lates you have whatever is left.
"The bar was empty when I got on board. It was a five hour flight to Tenerife.
"I spoke to this woman and she wanted food for her kids, I apologised and told her there's no food, there's not much I can do about it.
"But for her it became my fault. She said I'm 'useless', it's 'my fault' her kids are going to starve tonight. I 'should be ashamed'."
