Airlines rely on people who have the means ('suckers' as you refer to them) for whom a couple thousand dollars to travel return PDX to the East Coast is just what is expected. But a "cookie" as service in F - irrespective of time of day - is simply pathetic. Shame on Alaska.
If you're not a fan of the cookie then don't purchase F fares with AS outside of the meal service window. When I book paid F fares, I try to find the ideal times and flights with meal service.
Personally, I'd rather have the cookies instead of the "breakfast boxes" that AA has been giving out on the transcon redeye flight to MIA. Absolutely disgusting.
