Interesting comment. I have often wondered how the Third Class passengers on board the Titanic felt about the food they were being served. Circumstances (saving money, disruption due to the coal strike etc) might have persuaded some passengers to travel Third Class whereas in other cirumstances they might have preferred Second Class. The Goodwin family might have been in that category.Most immigrants traveling on the Titanic ate better on board then they did at any point in their lives.
My guess is that they would have found it rather bland and tasteless but filling. (Times change of course, but I am reflecting my own first impressions of British food when I moved from India to to UK in the mid-1980s)I suspect some of the immigrants would have been bewildered by the very English menu, especially those from middle-eastern lands.
