“Thank you to all involved in this amazing program, and to the students for their efforts, creativity, and for nailing a really good dessert!

​​Quote from Expedition 59 astronauts on 2018 Culinary Winner:

Please pass our huge THANK YOUS and WELL DONE to Decatur High School for their Orange-Blackberry Croissant Casserole. This was one of the best foods that we have had up here, we thoroughly enjoyed it and wished we had more! I would order this at a restaurant on Earth.”

Greetings from the International Space Station! Thank you for the wonderful surprise, Harvest Hash, this holiday season! We received it in advance of Christmas and anxiously waited to save it for a special occasion and had it on Christmas Day as part of a big brunch. We loved it. We were all speculating as to which herbs gave it the unique flavor and then found the ingredient list! I think it was the fennel—one of my favorites. Thank you and best wishes from orbit,
