it's food but not as we know it here's
some dried spinach just add water
mmm not the tastiest Emile's
on the International Space Station the
eating experience is a little different
food tastes bland and has a life of its
own British astronaut Tim Peake however
once more of a gourmet experience when
he's on the International Space Station
next year and so he's launched a
competition for schoolchildren to come
up with a meal for him to eat in space
some of the food on board the space
station
isn't quite as nice as it could be its
nutritional but some of it's quite mushy
and it lacks taste it lacks texture and
so I thought well this is a great idea
for a great way of people to come up
with an idea of something that is both
nutritional healthy tastes good and also
can have a bit of a Britishness about it
as well it would be more appetizing if
it would be in a bowl or something that
you can you know smell and give it in my
sense bacon or sausage II so that you
can have like the British classic fly up
maybe so the challenge for
schoolchildren across the country will
be to develop the first Great British
dinner to be eaten in space Paula Ghosh
