Exclamation 11 "E" Numbers in a 40g snack - and no Sarnie either!

Coming back from GVA yesterday, on the fifty minute late BA731, I was delighted to be handed a pack of "Sky Bites Gold". A "premium" snack mix of pretzelly things, seeds and fruit. In that 40g packet there were over 11 E numbers listed in the ingredients.

Now I'm not totally averse to chemicals, I know that Vitamin C can be listed as an E number, however 11 of those in a 40g snack is a little excessive.

Also, no sandwich at all. Just 40g of a "premium snack mix". I thought BA had got over this silliness of not providing proper food in ET. This really has to stop - I shall be writing a letter to Mr. Walsh.

Please give us decent food in ET band 1 and 2 flights!
