The apparently infamous United cheeseburger
I just about never buy food while up in the air, something about your digestive system shutting down when flying. Maybe I should stick with that. What do you think? On a United Airlines Flight, I Did Something I'd Been Warned Not To Do. I May Never Recover https://www.inc.com/chris-matyszczyk...r-recover.html |

Inc.com is awful journalism, if you can even call it that.
|
What a ridiculous story. And they actually pay people to write stuff like that?
|
I stopped reading as soon as the picture of the plane loaded...which was pretty much instantly.
|
I get it for free as a 1k for every domestic flight and while I am very sick and tired of it I really liked it. They even give you fresh lettuce tomato and pickle on the side. It's plane food, I'd never eat this on the ground but it's best BoB I've ever had.
|
Aside from being a bit on the greasy side, it's not bad. Not great, but not bad.
|
They were serving these in F out of DEN when the kitchen was shut down. They were fine. I've certainly seen worse.
|
I had this as a snack in F on OGG-SFO (red-eye, no meal served). I should have had the noodle salad instead.
I don't blame UA; microwaving a burger destroys it. The texture is just wrong. I think that the ingredients were good. I appreciated that the cheese was real and the veggies seemed fresh. |
One time I got one of the burgers as the free food when I was flying in Economy but it did not come with the things that are supposed to come on the side (lettuce/tomato etc....). When I asked the FA about it, he barked that it was not provided. Sorry if a simple request makes the FA unhappy.

They're not bad hot. Don't try and eat it after it's assumed room temperature.
|
Didn't UA used to have the beef stew bowls? Something like that was the one BoB item I found appetizing.
|
I have it every time I’m in coach, when available. They vary the bun and cheese, which is nice. Current brioche bun is pretty darn good. |
I haven't had it in the latest iteration (as IAH-OIL-TRASH notes they mix up bun and cheese), but my last meal-length UA segment in Y, it was quite tasty and in my opinion of outstanding quality for food in Economy. I was also happy to eat it when it was part of the Snack service in F.
