I passed on the Cheeseburger a couple of weeks ago. A cheeseburger is not a cheesburger unless it is from Five Guys.

It is well known (at least by me) that I have been carrying on a campaign to rid this otherwise fine airline of the accursed cheeseburger. I will say, however, that I had to eat one about three weeks ago (I was starving), and it wasn't nearly as bad as the ones that I had had previously.
I will reevaluate my position going forward...

Passed on the Chee-burger last Wed night flying IAH-CLE.
Had just enjoyed a big meal at Pappadeaux.
One of the best airport restaurants in the CO network, IMHO
(Of course this is after Gallagher's in EWR...right xyzzy.

I had the new cheeseburger for lunch on Thursday (IAH - CLE). It has been a while but it wasnt too bad and perhaps better than the old. It wasnt welded to the plate with the cheese! 
I kinda liked the old cheeseburger, so it is a welcome return as far as I am concerned. However I am making these comments in the spirit of comparing this to airline food in general, not to real food.
What's up with all the soup this month? Not one I like!

I had been able to avoid the cheeseburger when I got into F but could not avoid last sunday doing IAH-ORD. I actually ordered it and it was rather tasty....I just wish they would have a salad alternative to the burger...

On flights of about 1,000 miles or longer, there are more choices. I think IAH-ORD is just within the length of flight that still gets only one choice for the meal in F. On longer flights, for lunch there would be the cheeseburger or another hot sandwich, and the other option would be an entre salad. If the cheeseburger shows up on that length of flight for dinner, the other option would ysyally be another hot entre.

AS has an excellent Cheeseburger-
Wondering if anyone on CO has had it, and how it compares to CO's offerings?
As for Five Guys... well- one can't get a large cajun fries in-flight either

I once hit the jackpot - a cheeseburger SEA-IAH and then another IAH-FLL.

Now, get rid of the wrap in Y and replace it with the cheeseburger... That wrap is absolutely disgusting.
