A one-ounce serving of PeaTos compared to Cheetos: 30 fewer calories, 2 fewer grams of fat, 3 fewer grams of carbs, 50 fewer mg of sodium, 2 more grams of protein and almost 3 more grams of fiber.

Peatos still calls it Junk Food, it is on the packaging. 😉 Without the "Junk" is an oxymoron. Neither is healthy, but they market Peatos such that it is perceived to be. Less "junkie" does not mean healthy. Is the Peatos in the snack basket exactly one ounce, the recommended serving size? I couldn't see the weight of the contents in the picture.

Suggestion: Always offer variety in the way of proteins, carbs, and sweets. As they seem to have been doing.

The reason is that depending on my schedule, that the snack might have to be my meal. Other times it might just be some chips to go with the drink. Or a snack.

For example continue to offer: Beef Jerky, cheese, potato chips, cookie, or candy.

Alaska has previously offered some quality foods from some regional suppliers. In the future, I hope they can do that.

Happy to have peatos back.
Miss the jerky (again)- salmon jerky sounds interesting yet $$$.
Chocolate is also missing in action.

Peatos is so good that on one of my recent flights, the jumpseat FA in 1W was eating it before FA even handed out the snack basket lol..

There's only one correct chip in the salt and vinegar department, and that's Tim's Cascade Salt and Vinegar chips. Plus, it keeps the PNW centric offering in-line.

PDXPremier

Tim's are ok, but I also like the thinner, lighter chip that you get with Lay's.

Are snack baskets loaded on all flights? Let’s say longer than 700 miles? I flew psp-sea and no snack basket. I usually get it on this route. So I asked. The flight attendant said we don’t give out snack basket on these “short” flights. (Even though it’s loaded) The flight is almost 1000 miles. She was very nice about it. She said I can get you anything from it. I asked for peatos. And she gladly got them. She said the basket is for midcon flights only. (I assume over 1100 miles. She said it's loaded for people that don’t like any of the meals. She showed me her tablet that said basically don’t give out the snack basket unless someone asks for something from it. 🙄. She said if the attendant goes around with basket…. they really shouldn’t be.

a little off topic but it’s for first class cabin, what about the HOT TOWELS.

Are these gone forever??

AS Flyer

per company policy, she’s right.

So, when an FA offers the basket on flights shorter than that, s/he is hearing requests from the cabin, whether imaginary or not?

I would appreciate a small sweet, such as a return of a chocolate or similar. Perhaps a Ghirardelli dark caramel square. Perhaps some of the Seattle Chocolate bites.
