About Saratoga springs....
I don't know what allergies there are in your family but if there are only a few allergies you should have better luck than I did.
I have 16 allergies including 7 of the top 8 allergens. I found turf club to be wonderful the one time we ate there....artists palette....not so much..
I only ever ate the allergy free chicken tenders and fries there. They were not very helpful when it came to anything else and it just seemed to take forever to get my food.
We actually switched to the contemporary half way through our trip and found Contempo Cafe to be 10x better than artists palette. The managers at the contemporary seemed to be much more on top of things than what I encountered at artists palette.
But that was just our experience there...and my experiences are often a lot different than others because of the extent of my allergies.
Hopefully you guys have a good experience there!
Just a few questions for you, if you don't mind:
1. Were the fries safe for you even though you have a soy allergy? I was told last year they were made in a soy oil. I don't eat fried food often, but it would be nice to have that option!
2. Are GNI buns egg free? Their website lists eggs in its ingredients but I noticed you seemed to be able to have them despite your egg allergy.
Thanks for sharing your experiences!
My soy allergy is mild. I can have soybean oil and soy lechitin. I do have some GI problems if I have too much but I only seem to have full blown reactions to products with the protein (soy milk, tofu, etc).
I did not eat the GNI buns. I saw the ingredients and they do not have egg listed and the chef at Citricos told me that this is a email dinner roll that GNI makes specifically for Disney. However, I prefer not to try anything new on vacation so I declined them.
DCDisney said:They can bake fries if you are allergic to soy oil. It takes awhile longer but they are really good baked.
Hey everyone! Sorry if this has been discussed before, we're WDW vets but new to allergies! My DS1 has a milk and soy allergy, but is doing fantastic on almond milk. We take day trips often so we bring it from home, but we're staying at BCV and club level in Sept for 10 days and was wondering if there was almond milk available anywhere on site. I don't mind having to go to Publix if I have to it'd just be nice to be able to grab it in the park for him. Thanks!
I did write to special diets and called town hall like I do for the Halloween party to get safe candy. No matter what bring some safe snacks-- there aren't many food places open and they had reduced menus so it was very difficult to get anything. They just gave each location a special allergy bin with ingredient info and a few food items but no access to the regular allergy items in the restaurants.
The regular cookies are not nut safe but the cocoa and a apple slices are fine. Last year the only allergy safe cookie they used at the party was called OMG gluten free and it did have egg ( many complained so I'd expect/ hope for a change) and coconut plus a few seeds that I'm not supposed to have w my nut allergy. They were apologetic but there wasn't anything else.
Does anyone know where to write about adding Divies back on property or another brand with no eggs? I figure its worth a shot??
The current cookies offered are Enjoy Life, which are free of the top 8 allergens.
