Meals on Libya's Afriqiyah Air catered by CO?

Great way to pass time when insomnia kicks in--brush up your knowledge of special meals on different airlines... here's what Libya's Afriqiyah airways offers:

http://www.afriqiyah.aero/travel-inf...ial-meals.html

Infant Meals – BBML

This meal is provided for all cabins on flights with Business service and on flights operated by Continental Micronesia. It is available for infants up to two years of age. Approximately 40-50% of an infant's total calories should be from fat to provide the energy that is needed to support the infant's rapid growth and brain development. Reduced fat milks are inappropriate for children under two years of age. There are three levels of baby food - pureed, ground, and chopped. For Continental's infant meal, level two foods have been utilized. Continental infant meals are selected from Gerber Baby Products.
Almost the exact same language is found on CO's website, although Business has of course been updated to BusinessFirst.

Also note the conspicuous absence of kosher meals. Why am I not surprised?

I suspect it's just careless plagiarism, a "derivative work" from CO's web site

Libya does not quite have the same cache for Jews as, say, Fort Lauderdale.

LHR employs software to help ground controllers avoid an incidence of parking an El Al flight at an adjacent gate to any Arab airline. Wonder if you will find conspiratorial tendencies in that tidbit too.
