Finally someone states the obvious: The 2nd meal is nothing special and is rather light even in business. There was a meal served, called the first meal, so pax did not go without anything for 12 hours. A few hours without something to eat, is hardly a crisis and no one really suffered because of it. These are people who sat there doing nothing for the flight with a minimal expenditure of calorie. As for the food vouchers, do people really need a voucher that doesn't buy very much? If someone is that hungry, he/she can go purchase a meal at a restaurant. Hardly a priority for most people.
