Having been to airports in 20+ countries, they pretty much all suck. Decent meal in Hong Kong, one place in the US, and an ok one in Japan. The granola bar in the back of my pantry I forgot about until packing for trips is better than almost anywhere. Airports aren’t for food.
What ? People are often stranded in airports for hours and have been traveling on airplanes which almost always have either no food or awful food. People are tired, hungry, sometimes lonely, and seeking nourishment. They very much are a place for food. Having bad food and terrible prices is something the management of these places and the leaders of the respective cities should be ashamed of. I’ve had very decent meals at a number of European airports and Argentina and Brazil. I’m not talking about taking a date there to impress, I’m talking about a decent meal that doesn’t fill me with regret like every single damn place at JFK for example.

Fair enough, and I almost listed Argentina. It would be great if airplane restaurant food improved. Until then, I’ll just get snacks.
The US is not near the bottom from what I’ve eaten. More expensive, of course.
