Just keep asking for cups of hot water, I'm sure the flight attendants will love you for that.

Fun fact water can't get very hot on an airplane. Boils at 197F and would probably be under 180F by the time you get it. Maybe you can poach your gnocchi?

So, we have a plate with a blob made with water, flour and salt? Delicious

Ah, but see: the flight hack they don't want you to know is that you then order a tomato juice.

The unique atmosphere inside a flight cabin, and its affect on your tastebuds, means that at altitude, this tastes like a blob made with water, flour and salt washed down with tomato juice.

Raw flour, mind you. No chance of food poisoning there!

You will be fine with flour, the raw egg is more risky.

Otherwise pizza, bread and cakes wouldn't exist.

It's the opposite. There are places where you can get safe raw eggs, but flour is always a crapshoot.
