Diabetic Dining Question

[mousehouselover]

Greetings,

We are planning a trip to WDW, and we will have diabetic in our travelling party. Is there any tips or hints to help them stay on plan, while dining in the world? Any low calorie or suger free options, we should on the lookout for?

TIA.....

You might want to check the menu's at allearsnet.com. I know that disney is very pro active with food allergies and I am sure that they will be able to help out with this as well.

I have never had to deal with special dietary meals; however, I have read on here and on the Disney site that if you let know them know when you make your ADRs, etc., of special dietary needs they will try their best accommodate you.

My dad is diabetic and when we went down in june of 2007 we had called and let the CM know when we made our ADR's and we never ran into problems in the resturants until our last day of the trip in MK at Liberty Tree and the cook came out and was upset that he never got the word, when all the other resturants had it. Then even said to us, we have a diabetic. All but LIberty Tree was very helpful and he was able to switch anything for the potatoes etc. As far as sugar free stuff, they most all have no sugar added ice cream or sorbert. He found plenty to eat down there to eat!!

Also my mom has a dairy problem and it was no problem for her to eat down there as well, except we had trouble at Liberty Tree. But, hey I would say they helped us out the best they could.

My advice would be to call Disney ASAP and have them put it on your reservations. And hopefully like us most of the resturants will say something before you being to order.

Enjoy your trip!!
