In comparing Sleeper fares between the Meteor and the Star, I see that the difference is $50. If you're sharing the accommodation with someone else, that's 6 complete meals (2 lunch, 2 dinner, and 2 breakfast) in the dining car for an avg of $8.33 each. That's not all that huge. Matter of fact, I could call that down-right reasonably priced.
If you're alone, that the price per meal, of course, doubles to $16.66.
Even comparing that $16 against those recently mentioned "microwaved vacuum packed entrees" at $12, the $16 isn't all that bad once one factors that it includes a salad, dessert, beverage, and possibly a roll too.
