I had a very bad fruit experience in Disneyland in Dec. We were sitting at Tomorrowland Terrace watching our kids do JTA and my DH and I ordered some breakfast. He had the breakfast burrito and I ordered the fruit plate. $6.99 for terrible, un-ripe, yucky fruit. I was so disappointed! DH's burrito was big and filling and warm and my fruit was just soooo gross. The strawberries were old, honeydew wasn't even ripe - it tasted like wet grass, pineapple was very sour. The grapes were good - but I didn't get to eat them, my 4 year old ate them. LOL I was just soooo bummed, because I never feel like I have enough healthy choices on vacation (we eat tons of veggies and fruit at home) and the fruit sounded so good for breakfast. So I can't relate to the great fruit posts. Although, I had really great fresh, ripe fruit at Mimi's when we ate there.
Oh no!
But I will admit that on our recent December trip the WWS strawberries weren't as amazing as previous experiences. BUT it's December, not really strawberry season, so I gave 'em a pass. If the experience continues, there will be a change in my gushing over the fruit. DS's grapes at WCT were good.
I think previous posters were talking about the whole fruit you can get at the stands throughout the park.
Yes, including pineapple spears.
About sharing...we are expending more energy, but we just don't get mega-hungry while outside in hotter places than we're used to. We barely go to festivals anymore, b/c it's sad to NOT be hungry for strawberry shortcakes or the other goodies they have a FolkLife and, um, Bumbershoot, let alone broiling-hot Ren Faires. Our stomachs just sort of shut down when it's too hot for us, no matter how much extra energy we're using.
DS though is different, and he eats quite a bit, if it's something he wants and he takes the time to actually eat. On our May trip he REFUSED food all day, but we made sure to remind him that since that was his choice he needed ot not be a crank (he gets really cranky when he doesn't eat at home), but as soon as we left the park he was sooooo hungry. So we stopped in at Millie's for one mac and cheese to go (got one salad and one order of garlic bread too and that actually did feed all 3 of us...hubby and I mildly hungry, 4 year old voracious, all of us stuffed at the end) and snarfed as soon as we got to HoJo.
If you read the Dining threads about WDW, you'll see there's a wide variety. Some people eat tons while at Disney. Others don't. It's best to not compre yourself negatively to others (either in the "oh I wish we could eat more and explore more food" way or the "I feel like a pig" way....trust me, if you looked at me and hubby, you would NOT know how little we eat at DLR), but to just know your situation! It's good to know yourself, ya know?
