We traded our chicken curry from the cart with kids so they could eat something. I tried to eat this dish and it was absolutely vile. Cabin crew refused to switch out for anything else but did give us extra bread rolls.

I can’t believe anyone in good conscience can consider this as ‘suitable for 2-12 year olds’ as per BA’s stated claims about the kid’s meal.

Thanks for sending over a photo of a Child's Meal. These are not often posted on here, and it's always interesting to see.

I don't think it was "heavily loaded with aubergine and black olives" though. It looks like it was heavily loaded with pasta and tomato sauce and cheese. The aubergine and black olives seem to only be there in a small quantity for decoration.

Looks pretty inoffensive to me, but then I am not aged 2 to 12
