Jim would be appreciative of a home-cooked meal. It's not so much that he doesn't know what good food is like, or that he doesn't care, because he does. Unlike most people in his century, Jim knows what real hunger is like, and he's not sure he'll ever be able to forget. So he'll eat anything on offer, regardless of whether he likes it or not.

There are countless planets and star systems out there, each one unique, and all sorts of interstellar phenomena that we hadn't seen before."
