I'll bet if you spray that insecticide on the tuna it will kill any bad bacteria.

I haven't been at FDX too long but I would say the Scooby snack tuna can gets thrown out or left for the ground folks 8 out of 10 times. The meal/"ice cream" scoop on the salad rarely gets eaten. I would toss both and put in the beef jerky instead.

When BQN was eligible for catering, the tuna sandwich was my meal of choice.

You played too much "Leisure Suit Larry" in the 80's.

Other than an insight report, do we have any input into our catering? My experience so far is a lot of the items in the Scooby snacks get tossed. If you don't like tuna you are out of luck because they almost all have it now. No real variety in the different colors. I haven't got to experience the amazing 777 intl catering but on the domestic side, it is lacking. No oven in the 757 so I know it has to be cold but I think we could do better. Even the ready made sandwiches you buy in the airport terminal are much tastier than what we get. Better than nothing - yes but can't we do better without necessarily being more expensive?

Purple,
Are you saying you tried an Insite report to no avail? Or you just think it won't make a difference?
I've gotten fairly quick responses to the few reports I've put in for catering (however it was pre-Insite). Generally speaking whether it's food, hotels or GT, those reports do get seen and appear to be taken seriously.

Shoot, if I had one available Guido, I'd do it just because of that post. Hilarious.

Insite response was, many crews really like the tuna...apparently there are a lot of closet tuna lovers...he did say the catering group meeting is coming up pretty soon and he would bring up my concerns...if you like it or not, fill out an insite, they will respond rather quickly and it might make a difference...
