It is about time. I heard that there will me more fruits and carrot sticks for the kids. Only 17% overweight or obese sound low to me as I seem to see lots of chubby kids nowadays. For me in any public place it is hard to find food because it is all processed with lots of allergens added in. Disney is about family in its advertisements but then turns around and for decades pushed meals that are not kid friendly.
Yeah and woopie.

But are they going to shut down the "Goofy Candy Company" locations that seem to be cropping up in almost all stores now?

I had a '79 Pontiac Trans Fatty Acid. It came with a 403 ci engine and the WS-6 suspension package. It handled like a go cart and stopped on a large dime. It also had the hatch roof option which was great for cruising on nice days.

Wonder if these changes will extend to Inn Between, Westside, & VH backstage at DLR? E Ticket will of course be first to have Trans Fatty Acid free menu!

At The Land Pavillion at EPCOT, when the Season's food court was reopened there were no fried foods to be found. You want french fries? Go to Electric Umbrella. I have seen a number of families eating there and kids without a hamburger or fries.
Have found that guests seem to like the alternative to the greasy "Fast Food" offerings. I go there myself if I am at the park. Get a good sandwich, soup or stir fry offering. Much better and I don't end up with that bloated feeling that you get eating fries and a burger.

My boy will love this. He doesn't like fast food as a rule. He got sick of fried everything with fries, or mac and cheese, and was practical begging for some brocolli by the end of the vacation.

I'm a Level 5 Vegan. I don't eat anything that casts a shadow.
