I believe all meals departing the U.S., Europe, Australia/New Zealand, and some Asian destinations (?) are frozen products that were manufactured at a central location and shipped to the catering facility at the departure airport.

You can usually tell when a meal is fresh (or not prepared at a central location) - the hot entree dish will usually be loosely wrapped in aluminum foil (by an actual human) rather than sealed with cellophane.

this is super juicy tender chicken, an enjoyable entree leaving the Hawaiian Islands
This looks very nice for a domestic Y meal! It would be nice if they added pre-arrival light snack service on these segments.
