Ha'aretz is running a feature about the different meals offered by various airlines. Alitalia, it appears, "offers coach passengers seafood or Japanese or Indian meals. Air Canada has several main course choices for lunch, including eggplant lasagna and ricotta with mushrooms and spinach. For dessert, the airline serves Ben and Jerry's ice cream. Israir serves passengers meals similar to those served in business class, but on smaller trays - grilled salmon fillet in butter, saffron and strips of tomato, with sugar pea pods."
El Al, it appears, offers "salt-free meals, meals for diabetes sufferers, dairy-free meals, gluten-free meals for celiac sufferers" -- yummy -- but there's no mention of what options appear on the menus.
Ho hum. I guess the old joke is still true: When the air hostess comes round with the food on El Al, you get two choices: "yes" or "no."
