It's steak.

Wow.

It's actually not freeze-dried.

It kind of feels like a piece of rubber.

So I'm waiting for a special day to open that, and it may or may not be eaten if I'm next to a hospital.

So that is not really space food, which is probably, I know, it's very disappointing news.

I actually did a school presentation on space ice cream, I think in grade two, which life is full circle.

But that is a demonstration of the freeze drying technology.

But at least it would not be eaten in that form because...

It has to be rehydrated.

Otherwise, these little crumb flyaways, if you've ever actually had a chance to eat these ice cream bars or freeze-dried ice cream, it crumbles almost as soon as you take a bite into it.

So those little flyaways in the space station are highly problematic.

You know, it's not the kind of can you would feel comfortable actually opening and eating.

Wow.

It's from the European Space Agency, Braised Calf Cheeks.

with vegetables in balsamic vinegar sauce.

So I think the European Space Agency maybe has a different take on the menu than NASA.

But NASA, they do have scrambled eggs.

It looks like your dish sponge.

So it's a cube of yellow that you add water and eat.
