As a former employee of Midwest Express, I am completely off of "baked on board" cookies and the things I saw make me want the packaged ones, outside of perhaps a long haul Delta One where the cookie specimen is catered/prepared a bit differently.

I personally enjoy these Bell’s cookies, and they’re not necessarily cheap. Regardless, I’d rather the FAs focus on prepping the main course better than baking or warming cookies on board. It’s not like they’re giving us store-brand Oreos.

It was "chicken salad" style but with a light amount of mayo. Honestly, I really liked the chicken portion of the salad.
Not shown in the picture but worth noting is that there is a bed of arugula underneath this, which was fresh and tasty. It's really just the corn and beans that were questionable and brought down the rest of the salad.

There's no such thing as baked on board cookies. All are baked on ground and simply rewarmed,, at least on any airline I'm aware of.

Now if they plated the Dancing Deer Cookie, I would have zero complaints but a prepackaged cookie just seem cheap even if the cookie not exactly "cheap".

Delta is getting too creative again. I can't say I find any of these options to be enticing.

I can see how it might not be appealing to everybody though.

Definitely should be more commas throughout, though.
