1. No but looking at an allergen list is a super quick way of seeing if something isn't vegan without bothering anyone. And it shouldn't feel like an unreasonable request to the places serving food. 2. Because nothing says fun like wasting time trying to find out whether you can eat at a location or not. I thought this thread was about increasing revenue? Because food is a great way to do that. People with dietry requirements make up an increasing part of the population, and getting those people to spend money at the parks helps. So much of the snack foods around the park are advertised to children, and it is slightly jarring from the park experience when all your food is from outside the park. Kids are great money makers in that area. It is harder to leave the park when you have little ones and you don't have access to a car. There are options in the park, but I had to hunt for some of the more out of sight ones over several days. 3. Guest services don't have that information. When you ask the answer is "We aren't sure, just bring your own." I know because I did ask when a dairy intolerance was my main concern. And it wasn't something that was easy to access at Dirty Harry's either. I made sure to ask first thing in the morning when there was no lines but it still took a while to get that information. And to everyone who has mentioned Rick's, the salad bar was one of the options I was talking about. They were a little hard to talk to when I asked whether things were dairy free. $29 for a subpar salad bar is a lot, but finding out if the pasta has eggs in it in it might make it worth it to have some filling options too.

While on the topic of food, the parks need to have easier access to allergen information. I am trying to get a blogpost up about eating in the parks as a vegan but even asking whether the breadrolls have dairy in them at Ricks Cafe was like pulling teeth. Just having a lactose intolerence makes it really hard to eat at the parks, let alone options for vegetarians. Not to mention booking for the Star Tour but getting told I'd have to bring my own lunch with me because all of the food options at the park are prepackaged and can't be easily altered. I had to go well out of my way to email and call to find out this information because I am from out of state so packing a lunch takes a little bit more effort. Better options at Dirty Harry's (plain rice rather than stuff cooked in broth and a vegie option for the burrito) or a salad bar with a few more fruit and veg options (or even just plain bread rolls without cheese) would make things easier.

Sorry to bring up an old post but if the projection mapping is anything like the projections on white night in Melbourne I can totally see why they are taking their time and have gutted the decor while they do it. Those things look like they would take forever to create and they're on a canvas that does not have any moving elements to account for. Part of me wonders if it will be fully projected or if it will be like the Alice in Wonderland ride in the U.S. only incorporating the speed, sudden jerks and dips into jump scares. Either way hearing that they are considering projections has got me excited once again for what used to be my favourite ride.
