Drag the food onto this plate to assemble your space meal!

Dehydrated foods
Dehydrated foods are meals that have had all the water removed to make them super lightweight and stable for space travel. Astronauts just add water to bring them back to life and make them ready to eat. You might be eating like an astronaut everyday if you have porridge for breakfast!
Thermostablized foods
Thermostabilized foods are treated with heat to eliminate harmful bacteria and make them shelf-stable. This means they don’t need water and are ready to eat, making them super handy for astronauts! Examples of thermostabilized foods include tasty options like chicken à la king and even chocolate pudding!
Fresh and natural foods
Just like the ones you’d eat at home, whole fruits, veggies, and more can make the trip to space—but they need to be eaten quickly! Nuts, granola, and other snacks that are full of the nutrients and calories astronauts also make the trip.
