I'm get charged less often than I don't get charged, but that's only because I tend to say something like "I have to pay for food in business class?", but I still end up paying maybe 25% of the time. I've found in recent years that it's less likely I'd have to pay. A week ago, while flying YYZ-YYC on a narrow-body, the passenger beside me didn't want the meal, but asked if there were cheese and crackers, and was brought some from the back, no charge.

That being said, MSP-YYZ is not mainline, which could further complicate any data we have on this for mainline.
