I dont understand the beef with the snack plate. And it is perfectly "describable."
It is preceeded by nuts and a drink. You then get a pack of crackers, more than enough cheese, a few slices of cold cuts, a small hand full of veggies (sometimes with some dipping sauce) a bowl of fruit and a little dessert. How much do humans expect to eat as a "snack?" Its perfectly adequate for a short, odd timed flight where a snack is all that should be required.
While I agree that the meals served on the shorter routes during CO's listed meal times, have defintely declined over the years, its snack plate offering is fine.
im sure most of us eat far less between meals during our regular work weeks.
