Turkey Legs At Walt Disney World


jmengert

Recommended Posts

I'm leaving for Walt Disney World in a few days, and I'm excited that it seems to be a gluten-free paradise. However, I am one who chooses to not eat out, as I have multiple food issues, on top of celiac. The last time I ate out I also got violently ill, so I've decided it's not worth it (even though I'm tempted to at Disney.....)

I've emailed the allergies contact at Disney, and they said the turkey legs are gluten-free, soy free, and dairy free. My question, then, is if anyone here has eaten them without issue. I guess I'm mainly worried about cross-contamination here.

Thanks for any help anyone has!

I've eaten the turkey legs 3 or 4 times without issue. One other time I had a stomach ache, but on that day I also had the McDonalds fries and ate at a restaurant, so it's hard to say where the cross contamination came from (other than the fries which are at a stand that only serves fries).

I ate the turkey legs at Disneyland & they seemed to be fine. The only thing was that they were pretty greasy, so it gave me some problems, but nothing like a glutening.

(By the way, they actually taste more like ham instead of turkey..atleast the ones that I ate.) :D

The turkey legs are really greasy, but they should be gluten free.

I love the turkey legs at Disney..I had no reaction.....I wish I was there eating one right now!!!

Yes, I ate them, too. I never had a reaction to those turkey legs. And they aren't even small. After Kathy and I ordered one each, we wished, we would have ordered one for both of us. They are huge! :blink: I wish I'd have one right now, too :lol:

I have never had a problem at anyplace in Disney. Even during the Food and Wine Festival. The small tiny stands in each "land" at Epcot, the people working were knowledgable. I didnt get to eat as much as everyone else, but I had plenty! It was great. The one place that didnt know, I think it was Britian or Scotland, something like that, had an awesome grilled salmon in a maple sauce with a salad that was slightly warmed due to the fish.. they werent sure so they called up to the main kitchen and asked there... lucky me it was gluten free... it was the bestest! The one place I had a problem with, I went over to the customer service building and the manager took me back to the restaurant, gave me a gluten free meal, that they always had, just stupid cashier didnt know, and it was all free, they were willing to feed my whole family free, there were 8 of us.. but we didnt take it, only for my son, as we were heading to the food and wine festival and wanted to eat there!!! Disney is the happiest place on earth!!

      If the manufacturer says it contains gluten, then I would definitely go with that over the government website.

      Yes-sorry for that mistake. Nature's Bounty.

      It wasn't the pharmacist. It was the manufacturer. I called Reddy Labs. Reddy Labs said that their Sumatriptan SUCC has gluten in it. The government website information is from December, 2020. So do I trust 4-5 year old information or the information that the manufacturer told me today? Given that it is for my profoundly autistic, developmentally disabled son with celiac disease and migraines who cannot tell me if he suspects he has been exposed to gluten, I went with the information from the manufacturer given to me today. I do wish I had brought them home and run my EZ Gluten and LEOverified test on one of the pills crushed up. But I was so shocked when the manufacturer told me that the pills contained gluten that I put them in the CVS medicine disposal immediately.

      People say lots of things, but the site above is a government website and should have the correct ingredients (perhaps ask the pharmacist where they got their info?).

      They’re a Canadian brand so I’d assume you’d be able to buy from the US. You can buy them directly from their website but also on iHerb.  Hope your daughter feels better soon.
