United has also refreshed some of its popular Snack Shop items, including the Tapas Box, a customer favorite. The updated Tapas Box includes flatbread crackers, almonds, bruschetta, cheese spread, hummus, olive crackers, dried fruit, ginger mints and a sea salt dark chocolate caramel.

If people have suffered through the sausage/egg Sandwich during breakfast, and the cheeseburger during lunch/dinner, I think the pizzas will be a non-issue. I just keep thinking of the dough bomb pizzas wrapped in melted plastic that pmCO used to serve during "meals at mealtime" in Y.

I look forward to it. The more crossbranded items the better as you at least know what your getting.

I've long thought that those Stouffers French Bread pizzas would be the bomb after a trip through the convection oven.

No . . . it's like a pizza. Here is a review of an AA Uno's pizza with a nice photo:

I get what you are saying. My wife is allergic to anything that ever swam, strawberries and balsamic vinegar. Makes it hard for her everywhere we go but at least in restaurants and on cruise ships they can work around things for her. For me is all about type 2 diabeties and corenary artery disease. Thankfully I am doing well with both and sticking to low carb and low fat to keep it that way.

Different people have different sensitivities to different foods as well. Mrs Cricketer can smell onions and garlic from a mile away. I don't notice either. I don't like it when my seatmates or people nearby have brought McDonald's or a pizza on board, but I have no such issues with Thai/Chinese/Indian food. Others would claim the exact opposite.
My guess is that the majority of the travelling public isn't bothered by burgers and pizza. If I had to bet, I'd say this will work out well for UA.

Kudos for adding this option. It also adds a hot+vegetarian item to the offer. I know the original Lou's is a tomato/spinach base so this flavor choice as the default makes sense.
smisek would have picked freshpoo Houston pizza, so this is an obvious improvement.
