The sad thing was the salad was lettuce and nothing else.
And catering didn't even drain the leaves properly, it still had water on the bottom.
Thought it was against Quebecois law not to travel on Air France

As I said above, the top looks ok, the bottom was still wet and wilted
And I prefer it not to be drenched in dressing obviously, but man, they could've at least thrown a tomato or something else vs. just a bowl of lettuce.
I looked back at some of my own photos, when the likes of RJ are beating you on the catering front, good luck
Or even CX, CX is not known to be good on the catering front either

Here are some better comparison for other airline who trying to make a salad

American Airlines Salad


Cathay Pacific Salad




Lufthansa Salad


Qantas Salad, pretty close to Air France sadly


Singapore Airlines Salad


United Airlines Salad, I know its First Class not Business
