It's not as obvious as I first thought.
First family: me, my husband and our 15-year old vegetarian daughter. Hubby and I are carnivores.

Second family: our oldest daughter and her partner. Both are carnivores.

Third family: our middle daughter, her husband and their toddler daughter. All are vegetarians.


Score is tied, vegetarians 4, carnivores 4.
My husband and I are supplying accomodations, a 3-bedroom condo. Each family will have to get their own tickets and provide their own method of arriving at the condo, flying or driving. I will donate some money to help pay for tickets for the adult daughters and their partners, pay the entire cost of ticket for our 15-year old, and the toddler granddaughter is free.

Now it gets complicated! I'm willing to spring for a few big family meals, and for the most part I think that when in the parks, each family pays for their own food. But, we will have a full kitchen, and all will want to save money by eating a few meals at the condo, or at least getting snacks to keep in stock.
How do we do this fairly? Does each family put in, say, $50 towards groceries? Or should everyone just get what they know their family wants to eat, and label it?
Does each family get a shelf on the fridge? What if my 15-year old eats something that her sister meant to be for the baby?? What if the vegetarians don't want their money going towards the purchase of meat? 
What if the carnivores want to buy nothing BUT meat??
Of course I am joking, but only partly. Does anyone have any tips for cooperation? I think what would work, is that I'll use a grocery service to have the most basic stuff, like milk, coffee, cereal etc. there for us, and then we'll go get groceries, and yes, everyone pitch in $50. Then, it's all "help yourself".
What do you guys think?

Oh, almost forgot: do the grocery delivery services deliver to non-Disney hotels? How do we set that up, if we don't know our room yet?
Thanks.
