You'll find that although they do make announcements, no one will take away your food if you do bring some on board. Even the CEO has said this. There is also no wording in the Contract of Carriage that forbids you from bringing food on board. You can also bring items that serve medical/dietary needs. If you have to bring that Cesar salad from Wolfgang Puck Express, claim it is low-carb and diabetic friendly unlike their meatloaf. Or say that you were afraid they would run out, just like they did on the first Skybus flights. If you’ve actually flown Skybus (and have you people really done so?)

Imagine a jet blue winter storm situation. Or just sitting on the tarmac for two hours before takeoff. It happens. You're hungry. The Stewardess won't serve food yet. No imagine the riot that ensues. Or better yet... Just how many vegan low fat low carb meals are they gonna have on hand. Some of us always travel with food. for just these reasons. Food may be a profit center for the airline, but it is a health issue for me. The policy can never work.
