I think only asian airlines do the hot snacks properly (eg. on CX they cater to BOTH western and asian snacks such as crab cakes, noodle soup (NOT POT NOODLES!), pizzas, HOT sandwiches, quiches etc... These are proper snacks in J Class.

When I'm in WT+ I've found that if you act a bit dumb and ask the crew "is that the WT+ tuck box?" while pointing at the club kitchen they usually say "no it's for CW pax but help yourself anyway". A couple of times the crew have even remarked that the CW pax never use it and the food goes to waste.

If I'm in CW I'm not too bother if someone from WT+ takes the odd sandwich but I suppose I would be annoyed if I found that the kitchen had been emptied by all the WT+ pax.

I am not sure of the brand name of the products (they are sold in Waitrose)
one is a mushroom pasta dish and the other chicken. I will try and found out the exact details. For quality control purposes I tried both and liked them, but they do need more salt and pepper.
