PC snack change

Folks - have I been hibernating and not heard the news or does no one care? I have searched and have not any thread on snack change...
I have been hearing in the past few weeks that the PC snack is going to change – yesterday, I was shocked to see it really happen. Granted that most US carriers’ club are subpar compared to International carriers, I was ok with PC snacks – Chips, Fritos, Nutella, Walker, etc.

Yesterday at IAH PC E terminal, it was bare – gone in one week. No regular snacks but just cheese, fruit, and one of those dial snack machine that is pretzel heavy. Is this what CO and UA club going to come to? What are we paying $375 membership fees for? For some free drinks and yogurt?

Again, I am shocked of this change and that no one has commented so far. I apologize if this has been discussed (would appreciate a discussion thread link).

This has been discussed here:

However, I am not sure if these are the final changes. Then again, if last week's fiasco was any indication, they won't communicate the anything until after the fact.

I sure hope they go back to the chips! Or even better, a mixture of both! How hard can it be?

FRITOS!

Give me back my FRITOS! I pay quite a bit to have Frit-Lay small bags.

IAH PC snacks

I was in the Terminal C PC today. Cheese and crackers still available as were chips. One thing that was new was trail mix type things in 3 upright cylinders next to the apples. Looks like they are going healthy.

The bartendar offered some chips from the back but I declined as I was not in the mood... just would like the choice when I have the need.
