Obviously, I was very happy with the service on this flight! ^ Just very surprised. Any guesses as to what caused this? Hope it doesn't mean the inbound neglected to serve the meal (and, indeed, our flight was the ~1:30pm BWI arrival from MSP that would have been a lunch flight). Oh well, I was happy.
Sometimes this happens when there's a last-minute equipment swap onto an aircraft that's already been catered. No time to pull the food off, so you get a free meal. Or maybe NW was just feeling generous that day
