Most domestic flights these days don't offer their pilots much of anything for food, so it's whatever they bring or buy between flights. A sandwich is an easy thing to eat in my experience.

If you have a cup holder somewhere, then you are all set!

It has to do more with the difference in Airbus's and Boeing's attitudes towards automation. Boeing still has and will always have a yoke, which precludes much room for a tray table, while Airbii have a sidestick, allowing much more room for a tray table and associated goodies in front of a pilot.
