We're excited to be featured in Condé Nast's "37 Unforgettable Airport Meals Around the World" Article ✈ "Bookmark these for the next time you find yourself wondering what to eat at the airport—you may even find yourself looking forward to a layover.... Açaí Bowl in Charlotte, North Carolina Charlotte Douglas International Airport, North Carolina In a sea of fast food and overpriced snacks, stumbling upon healthier options at the airport is like finding a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow. During a recent layover at Charlotte-Douglas International Airport, I was pleasantly surprised to come across SAMBAZON®, a food company that sells Açaí-based foods and beverages. A delicious customized acai bowl, filled with fresh bananas, blueberries, mangoes, and topped with fleshy shreds of coconut set me back by roughly $13 and I couldn't believe I was actually enjoying this burst of fresh tropical flavors at an airport." —Taryn White, Washington, D.C. You can find SAMBAZON® Açaí Bowls at John Wayne Airport , Orange County, Charlotte Douglas International Airport, and Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport and coming this summer to CVG Airport - Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky International Airport 💜 Read the full article from the link in the comments below! #SAMBAZON #CondéNast #AirportMeals #AcaiBowl
