Food Allergies//Shopping for groceries in Disney area

Does anyone know if Goodings or Publix carry Rice milk and rice pasta? We will be staying for 2 weeks and I'm hoping not to have to carry his special food down if it's available nearby. Does anyone know if any organic or natural foods markets are in the resort areas-near Crossroads, 192, International Drive? Thanks for the help.

Hmmmm.... there is a Whole Foods market in Winter Park but that is a bit of a drive. I am pretty sure i saw rice milk on teh regular shelf, i remember thinking that my nephew would need that if he were with us... but my memory is not enough to go on these days. If nobody here can tell you for sure, then you might just call the stores directly and ask. I will ask around.

As you probably already know, the sit-down restaurants at WDW will accomodate special diets.

Wholefoods.com sounds like a good idea...

Publix definitely has Rice Dream rice milk, we bought it on the way to WDW last year. Unfortunately I couldn't tell you which market, but our driver from TTC stopped @ Publix for our grocery store stop. The had the milk, but I did not look for the pasta--sorry! Also-we noted on each & every PS ressie about the food allergies & the restaurants were very accomodating in finding appropriate foods. HTH!
