Burger, fries and drink at QSR: $10.
Same at cast cafeteria: $5 + tastes good.
Wait, Florida's Cast Cafe's taste good? I am now officially jealous. On the Left Coast it's:

Burger & Fries at QSR with CM discount: $7
Burger & Fries at the Inn Between: $6 with a side of food poisoning

I'll pay the $1 any day.

We don't get a CM discount on in-park QSRs sadly.

(Emphasis mine.)

Honestly, not really. But they're not Sodexo (Sodexhell?) by any means. Most are run by Aramark, best known at DLR for handling costume laundry for Third Shift/Technical costumes.

Some of the Cast Commissaries here do have Subway franchises, which is a nice break from the normal fare.

Except at DAK. It's a holdover from the days when it didn't have any TS, apparently.

I have Sodexo back at school, Aramark is SO much better. But yeah, Take 5 at DHS and the Mouseketeria both have Subways in them which is handy.

Hmmmm...

Now that you mention it, I'd get free drinks...
Alright that's it. Backstage I go! :p:

Part of the food & bev union contract?

Not really (though I'm sure there's a provision on it somewhere). It's part of WDP&R Food & Beverage's Operating Guidelines. Most restaurants off-property do allow their employees free drinks, and Disney follows the industry standard in the matter.

I noticed it in the policy, I'm betting the union got it put in there at some point in time.

Is it all of Food and Beverage or just ODV? Because the cashiers at the Inn always ask if we're "ODV", not "F&B".
