What do the Seahawks eat on the plane ride home?

As you might have assumed, the Seahawks get a much nicer in-flight meal than the average Joe.

A tweet from punter Jon Ryan validated our suspicions. On the menu Tuesday:

Grilled Angus cheese burgers, individual cheese and crackers, whole fresh fruits, seedless grapes, and mixed nuts for the pre-departure snacks.

Entree options included: A garden salad with ranch and raspberry vinaigrette, grilled beef fillet with a bourbon sauce, roasted chicken with a hoison sauce, spinach raviolli with grilled vegetables, entree Greek salad or a vegetarian option.

Snacks included Klondike bars, cookies, and Cliff Bars.

While that might sound like in-flight luxury, Jon Ryan was less than pleased with Delta’s offerings.

“Well well well Delta I can’t help but notice that the Orioles menu looked better than ours today. I’ll remember this.”

The Orioles got things like California sushi rolls and shrimp cocktails before departure. There were also more entree options: omlets, pancakes, bison or turkey burgers, pan seared Teriyaki-glazed salmon filet, and pan seared beef filet with Bearnaise sauce.

Either way, we welcome back the Seahawks and hope they had a nice flight home.
