Looks like my favorite 5:25am BOS-ORD has been “snacked”. 
Haven’t flown this in a while...anyone know what I’m likely to get?
Thanks!

The same as all other morning Snack flights - breakfast without breakfast bread. Currently, it's the egg souffle thing and fruit.

Just flew this route a few days ago, choices were breakfast sandwich or corn flakes, both served with fruit and yogurt. Only difference between full breakfast and "snack" breakfast is no breakfast breads. This is the one meal that is still largely intact on "snacked" flights.

SAT-EWR
739
Breakfast
Egg sandwich. Other choice was overnight oats, with the same fruit and yogurt.. They served two rows at a time, then came back with the bread basket with choice of cinnamon roll or biscuit.

E175 op by Mesa
Choice of Asian noodle salad with chicken or some tripe of sandwich, probably best FC service on Messy I’ve ever had!

Full PDB
Always love that Glenfracias
Choice of a entree salad with chicken (that was popular, they ran out of that first) or chicken with Mac and Cheese. Obviously not a new meal but still a good one.

EWR->ORD
Dinner.
Got the "all at once on a tray" service instead of drinks and nuts first. The nuts were over heated / mushy.
Entree was described by FA as a "Mexican Dish with Chicken, on the spicy side". Flavor was sort-of Mexican, but the noodles make me think more Asian...though not really an Asian flavor to it.
Would love to know what United calls it officially.
**ADDED: Well, some early posts have a better looking version of it and called it "Coconut Chicken Curry". Did not taste at all like that to me...

Keeping in line with the "snacked" theme. I'm flying SFO-IAD on a 772 (with Polaris hard product!) at 11PM.
Anyone have any idea as to what "snack" will be on this flight? Can I expect at least the snack basket with the gummy bears?

Hot sandwich or calzone with fruit and a packaged dessert - breakfast bread of some sort prior to landing.

Thanks a bunch! I thought the sandwich/calzone items are usually only mid-con type flights?

May menu from EWR to LAX. The short rib was pretty dry and didn't have much flavor.
LAX to ITO had the lobster mac and cheese, which I really liked. They also served fresh baked cookies.

I'm losing track of whether p.s. is still pretending to have a different mealset from normal domestic. Certainly a lot of things that used to be domestic meals are showing up on p.s. these days, like the ravioli (which is at least quite tasty).
Appetizer and salad descriptions are really, really low effort too. Wow.

Was supposed to be lunch but due to weather-related catering issues, Y got pretzels and F got the Y BOB snacks passed out in a tray. No PDB offered despite drinks being fully catered as far as I could tell.

I’d agree that p.t.s. meals have taken somewhat of a nosedive. It doesn’t seem very much different than on regular F flights to the point that I’ve just avoided eating on my last 4 flights and just tried to catch up on sleep.
I flew Mint last month, and what a difference! Getting to pick your own tapas made the meal service actually somewhat exciting. And they were all delicious! (And there were extras!)
