I think the DHL catered CE band 4 meals are generally much better than the CW ones....might have something to do with the incredible amounts of cream and butter they chuck into them. Delicious! Last summer there was a great Thai curry, which was bounds ahead of the CW one.

Yeah I never understood the need for fake internet points and replies for stuff like this when you could just keep your mouth shut and enjoy the mistake.

No harm intended i guess from the OP, shame i did not see this earlier as i was looking forward to buying 10 meals for a tenner ! The option to even see the pay for an upgrade meal section is complete gone from MMB now, so clearly BA check this forum out more then we think. Now showing a error message when going via old external links.

Excellent spot...I doubt many would have thought this...
Another FT post that lowers the community level...

Once upon a time this was a forum that was amazing for its advice, now its some newer contributors prefer to criticise and moan...Somethings never change..
