ORD to DEN
Well after a 5 hour delay due to mechanical issues we got a new plane. So instead of breakfast we had lunch in first. The choice was chicken with Latin rice or ragu (?) with vegetables. I chose the chicken. It was actually quite tasty albeit a tad spicy (had some kick to it). The fruit was meh. Mostly hard and crunchy. Lemon bites were good

Man, some of these dinner photos: I'm pretty sure I've puked in a toilet while drunk and they've looked more appetizing lol

I don't think it's restricted necessarily to airlines, but based on my current roommates and cooking skills, everyone during COVID-19 is just regardless doing a lousy job of preparing food, IMHO. That's why I'm very pro-Uber Eats.

UA 1559 DEN to LAX
PDB offered along with the choice of chicken or Italian Ragu. Dessert was served warmed up and plated.
so glad that weird bean salad has been replaced with fruit.

SFO-EWR breakfast. Choice was French toast or egg whites and sausage. Pre-arrival was choice of meat and cheese plate, hummus plate or tabouleh plate.
Stacy was my main FA and very good. Staff was attentive.

SJU-EWR dinner. Plane was delayed so dinner at 4am PR time. Half the F cabin partook. Choice was chicken or cannelloni. Sauce helped give the unseasoned chicken some taste. I ignored the bread. Came with no butter or spread.

LOL, OMG. Well take a trip over to the Delta forum where there's a highly contested debate as to whether call their mid-con F product should be called a "Happy" or "Sad" Boxed meal. I recently suggested we should meet somewhere in the middle and call it a "Nice Box" lol.

Forgot this. I bought 10 boxes to use my AMEX airline credit before the end of the year.
