Well I just got back from Europe. One flight was LAX - LHR in Polaris BC and the other MXP - EWR Polaris BC. Each time that I asked the FA for hot bites, I was told on the LAX - LHR flight that its not catered on the route and on the MXP - EWR, the FA's seemed confused and after I explained to them what it was with the whole tomato soup and grilled cheese sandwich, they looked around in the carts to see if any was loaded and came back to me about 10 min later and told me that there was no hot snack items.

The menu still has "Anytime A La Carte Menu" which states to ask the FA's about "today's selections." Was this just my bad luck or has Hot Bites Officially been cut for good? I remember back when United changed it from it being advertised on the menu to "Ask the FA's" but it looks like none are being loaded.
