Sometimes there's just no time. Or people don't want to spend $10 on junk food when they can eat free slightly less unhealthy junk food.

I bet you are will to GIVE UP this contractual item right? I mean, why even have it? Why try to make it better? Whatever, insult people cause they have a question. I hope the health God's never strike you cause the humility it may cause you would be staggering I think.

All items in the contract cost money not just pay. I'd rather have 5 cents more and hour (or whatever the cost of crew meals are to the company) and get to choose what I eat than have a crappy crew meal. It's not "free food". I can't believe some of you guys are this stupid.

Bring SWA profit sharing to the table and folks just might be willing to give up crew meals and be just like them, or some brand x regional (Even AA Wholly Owned regionals get crew meals).

My pooper and associated organs work fine no matter what I eat thank you very much.

You must be one of those people who run around like Godzilla is walking out of the ocean every time they see a piece of bread.

No, but I know adults who had to bring extra underwear with them whenever they left the house until they stopped eating gluten. I think maybe you are confusing the hollywood snowflake types who follow fad diets with people who have an actual disease like the OP of this thread. Which is your mistake.

Why not make fun of other diseases too, why pick just one?

Okay, and you have fun in the little bubble you live in. Hope you never have to deal with disease, sounds like you won't be able to handle much.

3.5 million people in the US have celiac disease. I agree gluten free is a total fad diet for the snowflakes who do it but for the 3+ million who must do it, it's most certainly not a fad.

There's gluten free pizza these days too, so fortunately they can enjoy that just like everyone else does.
