unsure why no meal on this flight

I know this seems to be a repetitive question - but sometimes the meal parameters as listed on delta.com do not seem to match up with the individual flights...Because my Gold Elite is with Northwest, I ride in coach in DL anyway, so generally it is not an issue.

But next month I am flying an award ticket with Mrs. Watchful on DL and we are returning in first class. The SLC-IAH segment is #4006, a CRJ with a first class cabin. It is 1193 miles, leaving SLC at 10:57 am and arriving IAH at 3:16 p.m.

The chart would seem to indicate a meal based on length of the flight (as would the times of the flight for goodness sake...). But clicking on flight details shows:

First / Business Class Meal: None

What am I missing here? Is there something "less" than a meal but "more" than a mini-snack? It just seems quite odd to be connecting on to a 3+ hour flight in which there is nothing in first class.
