The Secret Lives Of Cruise Ship Workers

The Crew Eats Your Leftovers

Crew members are the lowest on the food chain, meaning they get the scraps. It’s like high school cafeteria food, but sometimes worse. The kitchen staff does get creative considering they don’t have a whole lot to work with, but it’s not necessarily something you’d want to eat all the time. Imagine having to eat weird offerings like goat foot stew on the regular!

More details…

Lucky cruise members get to eat passenger leftovers. At the end of a shift, they’re allowed to eat what’s left of a passenger buffet, though it’s so good, it doesn’t really last very long. It would be frustrating not having access to a grocery store or a kitchen to cook in for so long! We bet they’re happy when they arrive at port and are able to grab a bite somewhere.
