Court "Order for Lunch"

You can see such orders in court dockets, mostly in the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, and might be curious just what's on the menu. Unfortunately, the document doesn't include the lunch order as such, but rather a court order authorizing the purchase of lunch for jurors. The Northern District of California also sometimes issues orders for jury breakfast, most recently in Elon Musk v. Samuel Altman (to be delivered through AI-using delivery robots, doubtless).

As I understand it, most courts don't routinely provide meals for jurors, but at least some courts do it at least some of the time, for instance during jury deliberations. I assume that courts in other federal districts likewise at least sometimes provide meals for jurors as well without requiring a court order. But I'm happy to be corrected if I'm mistaken on that.
