Those of us seated in rows 6-10 were not offered ANY food, and had to ask for it several minutes later after it became evident that no, she was NOT coming back our way, but working toward the tail.
FOUR TIMES.
All four flights, this happened. It was a bit better on 109 yesterday, SEA-ANC, where I at least jumped the gun and asked the drink F/A for BOB food as well, which she understood and got for me with an attitude of understanding.

So, what gives? It's not the end of the world, but why on earth do they only market BOB to rows 11-35, and make those of us sitting forward chase them down with call buttons?!!?
Weird, I've never noticed that, but I'm always either in F or row 17.
