Dan Mord, Northwest's director of food-service product design, said the airline's most frequent fliers wanted more than a restoration of the old food choices.

"We've heard loud and clear that a lot of our passengers prefer a healthy, vegetarian-type option," Mord said.

Of course, you have to be first class to get these options, but it shows once again that businesses will accommodate the requests of their most loyal customers, and the rest can take a hike. While it may be distasteful to some to play into the capitalist machine, it's clearly a tool that can be used to affect animal-friendly change. We're the customers.
