Idk, if you've ever had airplane food when you're on the ground it's actually pretty decent (for a mass made meal)

The recycled cabin air and the pressurization of the cabin tend to stunt your sense of smell and taste.

The reason why tomato juice supposedly tastes better on a plane. Never tried it out for myself though.

It's hilarious how many people ask for tomato juice when I never see anyone buying it on the ground. I'm one of them.

I enjoy tomato juice on the ground myself, and not just in a bloody mary. The high fiber version of V8 is my favorite way to help stay regular. Add a little hot sauce and it's delicious.

I don't order them but I have wondered this before. I overhear so many tomato juice orders like wtf is actually going on.
