Yes, lunch in F is "free" but the quality is questionable. IMO this lunch is inferior to the Y product.

Now tell me this ... why can't First have a lunch that's better than what's available in Coach? Or at least one that's equivalent to Y class (but free with the ticket/upgrade)?

That has been a topic for quite some time. You can, however, ask for the fresh meal from Y after all of Y has been offered the opportunity to purchase same, and it will be complimentary. (Shelf stable boxes do not apply)
