What kinds of food does astronauts eat now?

These days, astronauts have a much wider variety to choose from than in the early years of space flight, but even now, food must be prepared in a special way to be appropriate for space travel. Not every food works well is a zero gravity environment: some foods are too hard to digest, such as anything carbonated. Space food must be nutritious and easily digestible, but it must also taste good, since the astronauts will be relying on it for a prolonged period of time. In addition, the food must be specially engineered for consumption in a zero gravity environment (you may see astronauts eating food from tubes-- which are easier to handle and less likely to float away).In order to be used in space, the food must be well-packaged, able to be served quickly, and not need much cleaning up after being eaten. (For example, a food item that leaves crumbs would be a problem.) Above all, foods to be used in space should require very little preparation; they must store well over long periods of time; and they must be easy to open. NASA has successfully packaged a wide variety of foods, some freeze-dried, some powdered, that are able to be prepared on the space shuttle (in some cases, water is added, and the food can then be heated up). You can see photos of men and women in space eating everything from grilled cheese sandwiches to spaghetti and meatballs or various kinds of stews. There is even a space ice cream dessert that is available to the astronauts.
