Whole milk in the parks?

[Leash]

We went for just one day the end of last month, first time with a one year old. I didn't think it would be a problem to find whole milk but no one seemed to have it available and I got some funny looks when I asked the cast members. Since it was just one day I wasn't too worried about her missing out but we are planning on a week in December and I can't let her go that long without it. I know that's a long way off but if there aren't any options I need the time to figure something out, we will get some to keep in our room so she can have it in the morning but I don't know how to keep it fresh bringing into the park. So does anyone know of anywhere in the parks to get whole milk? I thought about it when we got home and realized we never went to Starbucks and they probably have it to add to the drinks, anyone know if they do and if you can buy it on it's own? Thanks!

Starbucks definitely does and yes you can buy it on its own in any of their drink sizes. I would try any place that sells espresso drinks as well for whole milk...there is an espresso cart near the Hub if I remember correctly as well a Hearthstone Lounge in the GCH might be a potential option. Most of the cartons available for sale in the park are 2% or skim.

Probably not an uncommon request for little ones. I would stop by the Baby Care Center and bet they will know exactly where you would need to go for that:

I brought toddler formula which I think is close nutritionally to whole milk. I dont think i would purchase it otherwise but have used it when we ran out of whole and were too busy to get to the store. Depending on your baby's age lots of Drs are OK with switching to skim a bit before 2.

Can you get whole milk in shelf stable containers? I know you can get low fat chocolate milk.

Here's one on Amazon

Just add a small container of half and half to 2% milk and you will have whole milk.

I think we saw whole milk at Napolini in DtD. Whitewater Snacks might have it, too. I prefer whole milk myself and have used the "add half and half to 2%" trick at DLR without any problems.

I am 95% sure they have it at Whitewater snacks at the Grand Cal. It's just inside the entrance from DCA. Take a left at the end of the exit hallway and it's like 20 steps down. They have a small convince store like set up, plus a great quick service menu and it's a quiet break from the busy parks.

But shelf stable is a great option to have in the diaper bag too!
