Pure indulgence: Gauri Devidayal enjoys junk food on a flight

Gauri Devidayal, Director, Food Matters India, counts flight hours as pure indulgence time. And when she is holidaying with family, she ensure that even her five-year-old daughter gets to enjoy flight hours as she likes.

“I fall asleep the minute I get on a flight. When I’m not sleeping, I’m eating junk food and watching movies. It’s my pure indulgence time. I could easily watch three to four movies on a single 12-hour flight. It’s the same when I’m travelling with family. In fact, my five-year-old is a veteran flyer. She knows her routine on the plane and I’m content to let her do her own thing. If she wants to watch cartoons for the next 12 hours, I’m like, ‘It’s okay. You can.’ I’m not really fussed about that when we’re on holiday.”
