How about this? Bring the food in but leave the kid outside? I think the "dragon" was attempting to work within the rules given her to serve the largest portion of her customers.
Yes I'm cranky, but I don't think small children belong in fine restaurants, offices, or other "grown-up" places. I pay the SC dues every year specifically so I can have a last bit of peace and quiet before getting locked into a confined space with crying babies, adults who feel compelled to share every thought that passes between their ears, and the never-ending attempts of the airline to sell me something beyond transportation from point a to point b.

Food and beverages may not be removed from any Delta Sky Club.
Just walked out of the MSP SC and the woman asked me if I wanted a Pink Lemonade to take with me. Hmmm. Is this not a beverage? Where will this lead?

Cans of pink lemonade are being sold this month for the breast cancer awareness charity.

Disappointing
I'm not surprised this happened in Atlanta - the staff in the club and at the gates are not customer friendly. I don't think this would have happened at the clubs in Memphis, Minneapolis, Seattle or Salt Lake City!!!

I think the rule means that you shouldn't take out any F&B supplied by the SC.
Since it's an officially DL sponsored charity, I suspect you could either consume the pink lemonade in the lounge, take it with you, or do both as long as you make a donation.

OT but the major reason is that if patrons are occupying your seats they should be buying from your restaurant/bar. It may happen to also violate local health codes in some places.

This is absurd as infants and toddlers have different food needs. Even the TSA makes an exception to their liquid rule for infants and toddlers so that they can have their own food and beverages. Also, what of people with special dietary needs?

Show me a label from a dairy product where it states that, so I can buy it and test it out in the temperature here.
