I didn't. I couldn't read the link, but hope he enjoyed it.
Hi Sandra - and I thought they were meant to abide by the rules ... ie not take foodstuffs to other places of the world?! Interesting to know about ... cheers Hilary
News to me. I also couldn't read the link because I would have to pay The Post to read it. Sounds fascinating, though.
No, but good on him. I hope it had a nice mustard spread on the bread.
😺I wonder how he got that past the launch command
Good idea! Hugs, Valerie
No, I didn't! I wonder if he had it with Tang?
I did not. Love it.
Funny
I didn't know that. You'd think he might have smuggled something better than that!
EC, Sorry about that I added a different link. I gather it was rather stale by the time he went to eat it;)
Hils, And you would be correct:)
Sorry, Elizabeth. I added a different link for your viewing pleasure;)
CJ, He put it in his pocket:)
Val, Yes. Heh. Hugs received and returned.
Elizabeth S. Ha. Probably.
Rue, Isn't that a hoot? I came by your place again. Sorry, still can't leave a comment.
Jeanie, Definitely. I would have went with a plant-based burger. Hehe.
I didn't know that but, it made me laugh.
No lo sabía, te mando un beso.
I didn't know! Fun space snack :)
Fancy doing that!
All the best Jan
I did not know that. I wonder if it was good.
Love,
Janie
True, Heh. Me too.
J.P. Sending you hugs,
Denise, I'm thinking a plant-based sandwich would have been better. Hehehe xoxo
Jan, He must have had a strong, mischievous streak:)
Janie, My understanding is by the time he got it on board, not very:)
Nope...I hope he ate the crusts!!!
Good for him!
Lee, Heh. I think the sandwich was stale at that point and got dumped.
Birgit, Sounds like a prankster, doesn't he?
