What food do astronauts eat?
Astronauts' food is very rich, including staple food, non-staple food, condiments and drinks.

In the impression of many people, it is impossible to make a fire and cook in space, so astronauts can only eat cold compressed food. This is indeed a true portrayal of the past, but with the continuous development of science and technology, astronauts' diets in space are more and more diverse, and they no longer stay in filling their stomachs, but also satisfy their appetite.

The recipes of Shenzhou 13 astronauts are very rich. First of all, considering that the three astronauts will spend the Spring Festival in space, the staff in the astronaut's office prepared jiaozi for them in advance. The fillings in jiaozi are also quite diverse, including pork and cabbage stuffing, day lily stuffing and Spanish mackerel stuffing. Secondly, the staff also prepared different foods according to the taste of each astronaut, such as northeast stew and Sichuan cuisine.

The difference between astronaut's menu and ordinary people;

There is no day and night in space, so do astronauts have a fixed diet? Or do you eat when you feel hungry? The staff of the astronaut's office said that the astronauts' routine in the space station is the same as that on the ground, and there will be no upside down day and night, so eating is more regular.

However, there are many foods that astronauts cannot enjoy in the space station. All foods that need to be cooked with an open flame and foods that emit obvious smoke are not allowed, such as barbecue, hot pot, etc., because an open flame can easily lead to equipment failure in the cabin and affect the safety of the entire space station; Smoke can easily condense into water droplets in the air, and floating water droplets are very dangerous to the space station and human beings.
