I’d be shocked if it did. Customers aren’t going to pay more in order to get food that’s going to turn out to be just as bad as all other airline food.
Since when did US citizens start caring about bad food? In general we love it: (insert chick-fil-a comment here), taco bell, KFC, twinkies, crap, crap, crap.....but yum (Pun intended!) The masses still think flying is exotic (nod to the citizens of Ponca City, OK). Maybe a meal is a deciding factor; grandma gets a touch of glamour via meal service at 35,000 ft.
