ezlead 42 Posted January 17, 2011 They were putting their a&& on the line for this country. I think they could eat whatever they wanted. Bad career move to broadcast it,though. How many friggen politicians wanted souvenirs from those flights? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lexx_Luthor 57 Posted January 18, 2011 Oh I don't know. Young went on walkabout, so apparently it wasn't that bad a career move. The discussion is funny though, and it seems, indicates that the NASA rules for that time were there for a good reason. I'd guess though that NASA coulda shoulda relaxed the rules and worked with their crews to experiment with real foods. NASA should have known something like this would happen. Thanks for this Dave.
