Putting a Qatar Airways A380 as the headline picture for that has given me headaches as well.

Never knew that US runs their own catering in TLV. Seems that mistakenly,some passengers have been given crew meals.

Is it an urban legend that the pilot and first officer have to eat different meals in case one of them makes them incapable?

No it is not but never really seen it strictly enforced.

It is in the manual that we should not eat the same meals.
We usually do not, but the FAs ultimately decide.
