Delta Air Lines Sky Clubs, compared to the other major carriers standard lounges, has a reputation of not just providing better quality food but as I have personally seen, consistently well-maintained buffets.
In fact, during my last Sky Club visit (once I finally got in) the staff were constantly working to correct any small mess guests made while getting their meals and just as constantly refreshing the food – all what you would expect from Delta.
But per Reddit user “elsaturation” a visit to the B/C concourse Sky Club in Detroit (DTW) that services mostly Delta connection flights on December 31st of 2023 did not yield what we have come to expect. Take a zoomed in look at the meal they were offered:
Uh, yuck!
The user stated he did not notice the food was bad until he had eaten some and “It tasted weird” and left him with stomach problems.
Yikes!
The Sky Club folks included, again per the Reddit user, a voice mail left on his phone and said that the above was simply blue cheese.
Update: Delta public relations has provide the following quote:
“Delta Sky Club takes the quality of our food and beverage products seriously and is looking into the matter.” – Delta spokesperson
What do you think? Does this look like “blue cheese” to you? – René

I have had moldy fruit in the museli jar in Detroit! Gave it back to them and said there are more in the Buffett line. But nothing done. Luckily I saw it before diving into the jar !
No, it looks like maggots. Or really gigantic humongous bacteria.
I don’t think you should comment like this until you know this story is for real … from Delta HQ. [redacted]
@Joel S – The post has been updated with a quote from the company.
Looks like my science experiment from 8th grade.
Now, now. Don’t be so hard on your eighth grade self.
Looks to me like the Delta exclusive Blue Grain rice being served in select Sky Clubs. Pending positive reviews, they will be offering it nationally.
