TBH, I've actually carried small containers of blueberries in the past on trips simply because I got tired of the sheer volume of non-ripe melon fruit chunks/cubes one gets either for flight meals and/or (pre-CV19) lounge/club fruit servings and/or UCs.
And don't get me started on the absolute pre-ponderance of green unripe bananas in UCs and lounges/clubs in past years. Further, one can only eat so many apples and/or oranges.

Breakfast aboard UA 344 from HNL-IAD on 01/08/2022. Thanks to UA for providing breakfast on this flight. I did not care for the Hawaiian breakfast faves, Portuguese sausage and rice, but I am sure they were welcomed by others. I should have opted for the fruit plate. This is where a menu would have been helpful. TO the F/A's credit, the croissant was served warm.

EWR-IAH 30 Jan 736 am 738 Max seat 1E
Was able to preorder but choices were just the regular egg white bites or waffle (ie unlike my sister’s recent lunch flight, there were not additional repackaged BOB options).
Full PDB offered as well as full beverage service pre-meal. Refills also proactively offered. Best of all we had the new Polaris-esque IFE. Very impressive (and came in handy with no wifi, which was the only blip on the flight).
I come to praise UA when they deserve it.

Breakfast as in post above IAH-LAX yesterday morning, and more amazingly, not a single grape!

I am not sure if this is a new addition across the board or just an MIA thing as it was the first time I saw it, but the wared chocolate chip cookie muffin thing was absolutely an excellent dessert.

I have MIA-EWR 10 am departure, I'm guessing tapas box? I don't think Miami is a hot sandwich hub.
I also have an EWR-IAD which I'm guessing will be nothing.
Haven't flown UA in about 10 months so not sure anymore.
