Is there a reason the RDU-ORD flights have meals but the ORD-RDU ones do not?
I flew the 7:40 AM ORD-RDU flight last week and received a single biscoff. When I asked for more I was told they only catered enough so they had one for each passenger

You'd think that with ORD being a hub, they would have enough for seconds..

These refreshments/"N/A" flights are so stingy with food. Even sfo-ord redeye for example just gets nuts. With the competition offering paninis and snack baskets I think they ought to start feeding us more. At the very least a small snack from Y would be welcomed.

I once again reiterate that most people don't eat on red-eyes, most food on UA probably goes to waste and a lot of people would like a minimal or non-existant offering to cut down on the noise.
And I don't think US or DL offer food on any of their redeyes. Nor do I think CO does on mid-con red-eyes to IAH.

CO has its cold plate. I recieved it this year when I flew SMF-IAH on a redeye. You get cheese, crackers, lunch meat (not much of any of the previous three), some veggies (carrots/celery), a little fruit and some cookies. It's not bad actually. I've long been annoyed with AA's domestic mid-con redeye food.

Noise issues in the cabin aside, I just think that adding meals to flights like ORD-RDU (where RDU-ORD), and restoring meal service to flights like BNA-DFW would be far better use of money.

DL only does a snack basket on redeyes from SLC-JFK. The snack basket usually has bananas, apples, twix, sun chips, reeses cups and little packets of peanuts and pretzels.

You'd be surprised. I've done my fair share of CO redeyes and I'd say at least half, often more, people at least munch on something. I know I always do.

Every other major airline has a snack basket in F for these type of flights.

I remember back when the "late night" meal actually had quite a few options - cheese/fruit plate, salad, or soup. I really liked the mushroom soup - creamy, but not too heavy. After a bowl of that with a piece of bread and a glass of wine, I was ready to zonk out for a few hours. 
I have to say that if you like soup with some kick, the AC at RDU had some absolutely fantastic Enchillada Soup for $5ish on Monday!
