Lacto-ovo-vegetarians eat both eggs and milk, so it's unclear why you think they would get soy milk, or cereal.

My sister used to complain about the vegetarian meals on one particular airline, because the standard 'dessert' was usually a brownie, but the vegetarian meals always substituted a piece of fruit. She wanted the pastry. An FA told her it was easier than catering separate vegan/vegetarian/ovo-lacto-vegetarian meals.

Should I keep the Lacto Ovo or just go with what is served? I am not that strict but wanted to avoid getting cereal as my meal and the DL agent explained that Lacto Ovo means Eggs , cheese fruit and a bread item.
For those with a data point please let me know of your Delta First Class experiences. I would think an Asian Vegetarian Meal would give you Soy Milk not a Lacto Ovo Meal.

Exactly. If Delta is ultra conservative I will just cancel the request. I have until April. I don't drink Soy Milk due to my thyroid condition. So regular , coconut or almond milk.

Not sure about the ovo/lacto meal, yet I must say that on a recent morning trip between YVR and MSP, I was served not one (1), not two (2) but three (3) quite large bowls of cut fruit, I had so much that I shared with others in the FC cabin... tweeted it back to DL and their only response was 'Yummy, Yummy, Yummy'....

The only problem with the fruit plate of yore is that “fresh” is not a synonym of “ripe”. I’m pretty certain that the honeydew I was served on a particular ATL-PDX segment in 1992 is just now starting to soften up.
The single best vegan/“strict vegetarian” food I’ve ever been served on a plane was the snack on DFW-JAX; bag of Fritos, crudités and the most perfect guacamole I’ve ever tasted. 25 years later and I still marvel at it.

Take that, and add the cheeseburger - the perfect comfort meal for dinner on a 4+ hour flight.
