WOW! It’s like you reached into my brain and wrote exactly what I would have written! We are DVC members too and usually stay at Bay Lake with the mini fridge and stopped doing the meal plan after our 3rd trip years ago. We always order perishables from garden grocer and I always load up one carry on suitcase with breakfast, lunch, and snacks! We also eat breakfast in the room, lunch we pack and bring with us, and dinner is in the park at a sit down, usually quick service because we are on such a budget! Many people don’t realize how easy it is to eat healthy and budget friendly at Disney! Thanks for sharing your experience!

Okay, I loved the article. We also go to Disney frequently. You can order groceries from amazon or vitacost too and have those delivered to your hotel a few days ahead of time. The hotel will hold your boxes for you! We gave up on the meal plan and it was THE BEST decision we made. We have three children and even they did not want to eat the crappy food offered for kids. Now we just order them an adult meal to share or an extra one and we all share. It also gives us more options for a table meal. We would much rather order an appetizer to share instead of desserts or even just get a bunch of appetizers and a salad for our meal (especially at places like the Brown Derby and California Grill which are normally two meal plan tickets and even then can be somewhat limited). One of our favorite places to eat is at the Wave inside the Contemporary. BEST coffee and it’s organic! They have other really delicious local, organic options too! I can’t wait to go again!

If you let the restaurants know you are gluten free they will always let you substitute fruit for the dessert.

In reply to Maryanne. You can absolutely bring snacks into Disney World parks. Other theme parks may have different rules but yes, drinks and snacks are allowed. (can't bring liquor in though!). Have fun in August!!!

In reply to Tamara Mannelly. I always thought that you were not able to bring snacks into the park. Does this include drinks as well? Water etc as water is pretty pricey in the park. This will make planning our vacation in August more healthy :)
