Turkey Legs... What do you think?

[DoomBugger]

The turkey legs at DLR, I always kind of laugh when I see people with them as it almost seems barbaric to just be walking around with a giant animal leg in your mouth! They are actually decent (although we got one that was undercooked once) but they are just so messy and to me being in DL is enough of a bacteria/germ battle without a big 'ol greasy leg to chew on!

I always joke that the pirates that hang out around and on the island should just carry them around for props! (and snacks or even makeshift weapons) j/k

I don't know, big turkey legs randomly placed in the hands and teeth of various park guests as you wander about in the park throughout the day is just kind of funny to me... and wierd!

I'm vegetarian so I'm obviously biased on this.

One word....GROSS!!!

I wish they would either go away or designate a place for people to eat them My dh eyed one last year, until he saw the look on my face!

They must taste good though, certainly saw quite a few of them.

I love 'em, but can't ever finish them. I do have to agree that the size kind of makes them seem barbaric.

 

[nicolita3]

I dont like them , but everyone in my family adores them .

 

[blackjackdelta]

Lovem.

I just think they look funny! We've never had one, and never had any desire to buy one (although it probably would taste good if I was really craving turkey, which I think is tasty), but I just think people look pretty silly walking around with a huge turkey leg.

My dh always proudly announces that he's going "caveman" when he wants to run off and buy one. The kids and I think ewwww, just pick us up a churro or some frozen lemonade please.

My family are fans of the Turkey Leg!

It's a great snack to split between the four of us.

 

[Albort]

i hate selling them. :\

i hate selling them. :\

I wonder if anyone has ever slipped and fell on a disgarded turkey leg. You know, the turkey leg-to-in-traction incident?

Those carcases would be more slippery than a banana peel!

Albort, tell us a turkey leg vending story. Dis some guy come up and buy six or something or did a pack of feral cats jump out and attack your cart?? You must have something turkey leg related!

hmm, i had this guy come up to my cart once and bought one. He didnt think they were hot, (we keep them 141 degrees + or we spoil them all if they dropped below 141) and opened it like its a drum stick only to be burnt by the hot juice going all over his arm. then he dropped the leg from the buuuuurn.

i was very disgusted by how many turkey legs Disney had to throw away one time i worked the cart. i wanted to kick my managers for it. Poor turkeys, your legs go to waste.

fyi, people tell me its pork. I tell them, hmm we sell pork with the name "Turkey Legs" yaaaaaaay! go us!

Do I smell a scandal? Turkeygate?

 

[Albort]

Do a smell a scandal? Turkeygate?

yes, scandal! Were gonna get sued by that religion that doesnt eat pork! not sure which one it is.

 

[DoomBugger]

Islam. Maybe sued, maybe bombed.

 

[actionvaughn]

Islam. Maybe sued, maybe bombed.

Erm, isn't this a bit uncalled for?

 

[Albort]

Erm, isn't this a bit uncalled for?

ironically, i been accused that i lied to the guest because im selling pork under the fake name of Turkey leg. I really didnt know how i could prove to her that im selling Turkey, and not Pork.

I taken lots of bad things from guest. :'( why are there soo many evil people in the world.

 

[actionvaughn]

I believe that 100%, Albort, because I get not so nice customers at my work accusing me the most random stuff also. (Like when Brokeback Mountian was out on DVD and our store was checked out, a guest asked me that since it was a movie with a same-sex relationship, is that why we didn't carry an infinite amount? Sigh.)

What I was saying might be uncalled for was the comment about Islam... It's not my place to say because I'm not a mod, but yeah... I'm sure Doombugger didn't mean it in an offensive way, but it comes off as such.

 

[NicoleDisneyFan]

I called my dh a caveman when he was eating them. My dh LOVED them!!! We had to find every stand where they sell them. My dh is a picky eater and wouldnt stop eating them. I would say to him "what do you want to eat" and all he would say is "lets find the legs" It was just to funny to watch him with the leg

actionvaughn, I never intended to offend. I do apologize for making a joke that could be taken as controversial, inappropriate, sensitive, etc.

Now can we please get back to TURKEYGATE??

 

[actionvaughn]

Is Turkeygate the customer Albort helped and accused of selling pork to or people slipping on those giant turkeys? I think it should be about the guy that looked hilariously like Fred Flintstone when he was arguing with someone waving a leg around in between bites of a turkey leg.
