Hey, at least your turkey leg eater wasn't two-fisted.

Yes, I have seen it.

And considering that, last I heard, the turkey leg has 6,000 calories...
:gross:

I used to love the things, until I started losing 50 pounds. Now, I can't stand the smell of them. When I was on the MK Monorail platform and someone would come up carrying one, I would either have to hold my breath or walk away. And when they threw one away in the trash can up there, it would stink the whole place up.


My opinions are mine and mine only. If my opinions are the opinion of others who happen to share whatever my crazy views may be, then fine, but it's not because I represent them in having my opinions. Got it?

6000 CALORIES :eek: :eek: :eek:
Is this true? I haven't eaten any Turkey Legs at DL, but I would expect that kind of count for the Monte Cristo at Blue Bayou. even 1/2 of one is too much!


:flybongo: NO BULL!!!!!:D:

at the MOST, it could be about 1600, but 6k seems a bit high.

several places give varying calorie counts, but not as high as 6k.

I go with 6,000. That's enough for me to detest them, so I like that number.

I don't need to know the calorie count in turkey legs to detest them. They've never looked appetizing to me. Some days just the smell is enough to turn my stomach. :sick:

I don't get how anybody can eat even half of one, let alone a whole one, they're so big. People seem to like them though, every so often I'll have a guest ask me where to get one and I've seen a lot guests with them at the MK (not so many at DAK but I've only been there a few weeks).


Around here, however, we don’t look backwards for very long.

We keep moving forward, opening up new doors and doing new things, because we're curious…
and curiosity keeps leading us down new paths.
