What is considered a snack?

[jlk806]

The last time I was at WDW on the DDP I saw people using snack credits to get cheese fries, muffins, pretty much everything. I have read that there is a difference in opinion on what is considered a snack that varies from restaurant to restaurant. Is there a specific listing of what you can and cannot use your snack credits for?:banana:

This sticky (http://disboards.com/showthread.php?t=2067447) shows what people have been able to get for snack credits.

your basic rule of thumb for what's a snack on the dining plan is

1) The item is priced under $4.00 AND
2) it is a single-serving sized item

so, at the resort convenience store a 6 pack of doughnuts for $3.99 will NOT be allowed as a snack, because even though it's under $4 a 1/2 dozen doughnuts is not meant to be a single serving. Likewise the 1/2 gallon of milk priced under $4 - not a single serving.

But, a giant gourmet double chocolate muffin priced as $2.49 IS allowed because it meets the criteria.

There are a few exceptions, here & there, at some food carts. Some menus (and food racks in food courts) will have the DP emblem on them to let you know they're on the dining plan. But if all else fails, ask the counter person:goodvibes
