Uhh. you should check out other sources across the internet. Plenty of people post on reddit and twitter about getting some pretty crappy sandwiches.
I think a lot of us are very understanding of the issues Delta (and most other airlines) are seeing with catering. I completely understand supply chain and labor issues are why the industry hasn't been able to just flip a switch and go back to pre-COVID over night. But I have also gotten some food on Delta (and others) that is a complete joke and basically inedible (being frozen is the biggest issue I have run across)
To the point that I was mostly buying food in the terminal or taking pre-packaged food from the SkyClubs (when it was a thing) and turning down the sad boxes.
and I am FAR from some of the DYKWIA, picky, "OMG you gave me a PLASTIC CUP!" FTers. But Delta (and others) have some very big issues in COVID era catering. (we don't even talk about what a f'in joke Premium select catering is now or the lack of PFBs)
