First World Torture

I would be *miserable* if I were a member of one of those families that packs their own lunch in to Disneyland, eating a dry PBJ on healthy 7-grain bread while other families are enjoying corn dogs and churros all around them. Any "Disney On A Budget" book that suggests such a thing, I instantly know to disregard any opinions expressed in that book. The ideas expressed in such a book are NOT ways to create a cherished memory that you want to relive over and over again, they're ways to check off the "We Took The Family To Disneyland Once" item from their "We're A Perfect Family" Checklist.

I know that many people have to pack food with them wherever they go due to various food allergies and intollerancies, and I feel very sorry for them :(

We have always said that we would do this in order to save a little money. But we've never had the follow-through. The foods are half the appeal. We leave in two days, and I've already planned all my treats out. Im going to try the muffaletta sandwich ;0)

OoooOoh, we did the Muffelatta last year it was SOOO GOOD... and it comes in a Jack Skellington coffin (if you order it as a meal - usually you have to ask for it specifically)!
