What Gives?

Actually, they do have many healthy options at the parks. They sell small bowls of mixed melon, packs of grapes, etc. and such at several of the kiosks - and nearly every drink cart has bottled water ....

I knew someone would bring that up, and I know that they do, I was just kidding :p: , but back in the day when I was a kid there weren't many healthy snacks for sale, just Coke and Popcorn and Ice Cream. The churros came along later.

Gurr...fruit carts are not ODV, they are ran by restaurants.

Hmm...now where was that pet peeves thread...

Hey now, it is out doors and they are acting as a vendor selling a product :-P

Fine, a ODVRBTR selling fresh fruit, better ;)

That is OutDoor Vendor Run By The Restaurants

Well, we're actually called QSR - Quick Service Restaurants, so the term you're looking for is actually ODVRBQSR :p: .

Talking about this issue brings up a really small SCMT. The first time I worked one of those Fruit Carts, Costuming insisted that I was supposed to wear the Area ODV Costume (I wasn't). Despite the fact that I kept pointing out that there was no need for a QSR Foods CM to wear an apron with such deep pockets (we don't do the whole Cash Handling by hand thing).

Ahhh, thanks for the clarification :) Now we need to update the acronym thread :D:

Now if it had been Coke and fresh fudge....

No, no, no! *DIET* Coke and fresh fudge. You gotta save where you can, right?

I actually ordered that combination once, only to have the server ask, "Why?"

I looked her in the eye and asked, "Do you have diet fudge?"

"Er... no."

"That's why."

Hehehe good point, one cancel's the other!!

(actually I am "addicted" to the diet coke with lime!)

Ah, Zazu. I bow to the master again. I wish my wit were half as quick as yours.
:zazu:

But as Oscar Wilde said, "the ability to quote is a serviceable substitute for wit." That is to say, I'm going to steal this and use it myself someday. :D:

[DisneyMom]

Diet Coke and fudge is only a medium-calorie snack! :D:
There is Diet fudge (sugar free) but doesn't quite taste the same- also watch out for the LAXATIVE EFFECT

Am I the only one flashing back to the whole "food court" conversation in Mallrats?
