Funny enough, spending negotiating capital on crew meals was a waste. Who didn't see it coming that it would be the total mess we have today? Most of the meals are terrible, missing completely or woefully inadequate. I love when my two option are both foods that I can not eat...after I noted anything but those two because I'm allergic lol. Even if we could order specific meals, it will still be crap, shelf-stable airplane food.

Just flew with a FO who had been at UAL for 2 years and they found even their crew meals were terrible. So I dont think getting their language would be a great win.
