Is Boudin bread used in all bread bowls throughout the parks?

My husband was hooked on Boudin's sourdough after our daughter received a free Mickey loaf following the bread tour in CA. Curious if Boudin's is the "official" bread used in bread bowls throughout the parks. We're making a trip in the fall of 2016 and looking forward to trying the bread bowls in various places. Thanks!
 
As far as I can recall, there is one place in each park to get these bread bowls, which is Pacific Wharf in DCA and in New Orleans Square in DL. I can't recall seeing bread bowls with soup on menus other than in those two locations, but I did see the Mickey breads in DCA on Buena Vista St for sale alongside fruit and drinks.

I believe they're all the same bread. I can't imagine they'd have different bread for ONE other restaurant in DL, they tasted the same to me.
 
I am a Disney bread bowl fanatic, and there are multiple places to get them. The bowls at Pacific Wharf are noticeably tastier than in Disneyland. They seem tangier, fresher, and the crust is much nicer. So, either they are made in a different place in the parks, or they are just older at Disneyland. I'm not really sure. My family and I did a bread bowl trek two years ago and ate every single flavor of soup or chili offered in a bread bowl at DLR over a five day period. The bread was so much better at DCA; however, the top rated soup was the steak gumbo, which can only be purchased at Royal Street Veranda. It's a little counter service window at New Orleans Square and believe me, it is worth the line. You cannot get the traditional amazing gumbo in a breadbowl anywhere; that is served in a regular bowl at Blue Bayou and Cafe Orleans. However, it's incredible. Other great soups are broccoli cheese, clam chowder, and corn chowder,and beef stew. Hope that helps!
 
There are quite a few locations at DL that sell soup-bowls. I looked at all the menus before our last trip to see if we wanted to try any new restaurants. It appears to be the same bread, but we've only ever ordered it at the Pacific Wharf Café. We love that place; it's one of our must eat at locations. It's possible that the bread is fresher at DCA since it's made right there.
