Why you getting a salad? A taco salad? Like the Bud Light commercials said, congratulations, you just managed to cram 12,000 calories into a salad. Is it healthy? Sure, it's a salad! So go on you Conquistador of the Calorie, eat that salad... between legs.

The company COULD cut the accessibility to these third party companies for security reasons, and say do it yourself, I don't think we would appreciate that.

Also don't the FAs get meals if their duty day (or total block) is over 8 hrs? One told me that and I wasn't sure if that was true or not, was on one of those west coast turns.

Yep. You definitely answered your own question. Don't let anyone (including ALPA or "Capt Longsleeves") talk you into violating an FAR.

I know you jest, but between Willies, Qdoba and Moes you can do pretty well depending on your goals since you get to choose the ingredients.

On Moes website you can actually go in and select every ingredient they have, on any item, and it adds up all the nutrition info for you. So say you are more into the meat and veggie thing, you can leave off the rice, beans and cheese and do pretty well.
