An interesting, but little known fact.
It's not commonly known that
food grown in space, has already been
eaten (at least, unofficially).
During the heyday of Soviet space activity onboard the Salyut-7 spacestation, radishes were successfully grown in a hydroponic
apparatus.
The radishes ended up...eaten...by the cosomonauts...without receiving permission from the scientists at ground-control.
Apparently the cosomonauts found their
regular rations and meals in space to
be rather...bland.
