Considering this is longer than a coast to coast transcon, and their web site notes that meals are available on flights 2200 miles or longer, they should have had something more substantial than biscoffs on board. Send a note to customer service and ask them how they stock food for a 3042 mile flight with next to nothing, which also goes against what they advertise "
Meals and non-alcoholic drinks available". And then let them know the FA said it's a common practice.

I think it has already been commented elsewhere that that part of the webpage is misleading. The coach
meals on domestic flights over 2,200 miles are only on premium (Flagship) routes. Larger buy-on-board snacks are not what they mean by meals -- as is indicated by how the charcuterie tray, etc., are listed under "
Snacks...available on flights over 1,300 miles". However, they don't promise there that all snacks are available on all eligible flights.
