Print Edition
The Russian research institute responsible for designing meals for the country鈥檚 cosmonauts said it was prepared to consider hamburgers, after the head of the Russian branch of fast-food giant Burger King suggested it should add cheeseburgers in tubes, according to the website of the Kommersant newspaper.
鈥淲e鈥檙e not opposed to this possibility, especially if the food tastes good and the cosmonauts like it,鈥 Lyudmila Pavlova, the head of the space food division at the Russian Academy of Sciences, was quoted as saying by ITAR-Tass.
However, some of the development team expressed aversion to bumping burgers onto the Russian space food menu.
鈥淧ersonally, I am against the idea of burgers. It鈥檚 fast food that is not customary for our country,鈥 said Alexander Agureyev, who oversees catering for the International Space Station at the Russian Academy of Sciences.
Astronauts鈥 meals are generally made up of refrigerated, dehydrated and canned foods with long shelf lives.
