New Coach Meal - Penne & Sausage
Just took a SEA-DEN flight a few days ago, and unfortunately missed upgrading by one seat. 
But I got a nice exit aisle seat in coach, so I was still pretty happy.
I noticed the eastbound lunch option had changed, with the nasty (IMO) chicken sandwich replaced by a Penne Marinara with Italian Sausage and a piece of garlic bread. I decided to give it a try, and it was delicious! I'd get it again in a heartbeat; it was actually a lot better than many of the meals I've had in F.

Glad to know there's another good option for a coach meal. IMO paying for meals is the best thing that has ever happened to airline food. It creates an incentive for the airlines to serve a wider variety of higher-quality food, since people actually have to be convinced to pay for it.
