The guy next to me ORD-LGA got the veggie meal, and it actually looked more appealing -- and certianly more healthful -- than my chicken breast salad. YMMV.
oooh, i
hope you're right and i'm wrong! i stopped ordering special meals because they just seemed like coach special meals on nicer plates...when i was usually traveling in y, the special was a better option than whatever else was being offered, but now that i'm typically in c or f, that doesn't seem to be the case. anyone have any recent info, both for me and the op?
