Okay, so no one ever goes onto an airplane expecting to have a five-star meal, but people definitely aren't expecting this.

Long, roasted, and shriveled, it was not only unappetizing, but way too reminiscent of a certain body part. “I asked the server what it was...and he told me that it was a root vegetable,” the passenger explained to Australian news. “He blushed and was very apologetic, I don’t think he had ever seen anything quite like it...the lady next to me was cracking up.” Qantas Airways tried to clarify the misunderstanding, but even they had to admit the meal looked a little funky. "The dish pictured is Steamed Vegetarian Dumplings with Chilli Black Vinegar and Soy Dressing," they explained to News.com.au.
