The headline gave me pause. But the last sentence allowed me to exhale!
Delta announces new snacks lineup, retires Delta-branded offerings
After decades of service, Delta Air Lines-branded peanuts and pretzels are stepping down as the airline’s Main Cabin snack offering. With those snacks’ retirement set for Dec. 14, Delta is unveiling its improved onboard lineup including Snyder’s of Hanover® pretzels, Squirrel Brand Honey Roasted peanuts and NatureBox Apple Cinnamon Yogurt Bars. The airline’s beloved signature Biscoff cookies will remain in service.

The change in snacks looks nice improvement.

I've heard many, many people joke about Biscoff being the real reason they fly Delta. Perhaps this is one piece of customer feedback they are taking to heart?

Biscoff recently announced that it's building its first bakery outside of Belgium in North Carolina, as the USA has become its largest market. And yes, retail sales triumph airline sales.
It really wouldn't be surprising if DL got these cookies for next to nothing.
Not that Biscoff cost much. It's a perpetual 10-for-$10 item at local super markets; I saw a larger, 32-cookie package for $2.50 at a Ralph's recently. That's only 0.001 cents per calorie!

IIRC, I have seen some "local" snacks in the DeltaOne snack basket.

I am looking forward to the honey roasted peanuts. And the yogurt bars. Pretzels are pretzels. And biscoff, well, we all know the pitchforks would have come out if they'd taken those away.
