This is about a Tiger Airways flight but may apply to Air Asia:
Last year on a Tiger Airways flight, Perth-Bangkok, i read in the inflight magazine a request asking passengers not to bring food onboard because some foods may be offensive to other passengers.
It also said that bringing our own food onboard, "deprives airline staff from receiving commissions."
I'm afraid i was reading the article at the same time that i was munching on food i'd brought onboard.
No-one confiscated my food :)
