Ham and Cheese or Cheerios

ummm... is this all Delta serves. Every single route , every time for breakfast these are my only options. If you actually eat the Ham and Cheese I’m pretty sure your taste buds have been eradicated

I’ve given up on any expectation of good food on a US carrier in any cabin. Even the Sky Club offerings are pretty marginal.

However, they are not your only options. You could bring food on the plane, though the taste might be off due to the effect of reduced pressure on taste perception.

DL catering is truly abysmal these days....just reference my “luxury” meal in Delta One on JFK-LAX

This is the Ham and Cheese thread. Trust me it doesn’t belong in the meal thread since it’s not food

I have had good luck with a special meal for breakfast. I ordered low sodium and had a good omelette with sausage and fruit.

Touche.
On another note never understood why those who are not moderators choose to try and moderate a thread.

because the quality of the forum suffers when people start redundant threads and letting the OPs know this is the only hope of correcting this behavior. Moderators need to combine threads but there's absolutely nothing wrong with mere mortals informing an OP about the norms of the forum.

Like, why are you trying to moderate the citizen moderators?

Redundant threads don't bother me. Got other things to annoy me throughout the day. To each their own.

The thread title was sufficiently descriptive, so I had no trouble inferring the topic.

Were I deeply troubled by redundant threads, I could have taken personal responsibility and ignored it.

Weird how people who fingerwag and suggest that people ignore redundant threads can't ignore individual posts in those threads (and then make their own off topic posts in those threads to complain about the other posts that they think are useless).

Personally, I would be very happy (and surprised) if offered a ham and cheese sandwich. Of course, that is only one of the problems when your home airline is El Al.

If you had ordered the VGML SM, you would have gotten dairy yogurt, some sort of omelet, a bagel with cream cheese and tons of fruit.

None of which is VGML except for the fruit

Breakfast has never been a good option on Delta, but they should be embarrassed with what they are serving now. Lunch/dinner is usually decent, but the portion sizes are shrinking.
