Last time I cruised there was an all u can drink beverage package so that would be a better deal for the big drinkers.

Are Disney food prices really over the top?

We do drink the drink page on cruises it comes out a lot cheaper
16oz coke etc have gone up considerable i would guess Disney will be raising their prices again soon
Does Disney still sell refillable drinks?? Haven't did that since my kids were little but remember at the resorts you use to be able to purchase those.
Lol, non alcoholic drink prices are the one of the few pricesthat doesn't shock me, where I live we have a 6c/oz sugar tax so a 20oz coke gets hit with a extra 1-1.20c tax
. It's on Gatorade and a lot of "energy" drinks. Lol needless to say if I buy soda it's over the bridge in Jersey

"There is no refillable mugs for the parks, however if you stay at a disney resort, they usually have them, but they can only be refilled at the resort. Cost $19.95"

If you’re gonna drink on a ship…you have to do the packages. Every cruise line is designed that way except for one

I wonder if the rate of use declined because of the covid restrictions that made them kinda difficult for a year+?

Every time I go in the park I see whole groups with those things and I always wonder if they've just decided the one drink from the resort before leaving is worth carrying them around all day or if no one told them how they worked.
Then I lean towards the latter and feel bad for when they find out.

In practice…I think that vastly limits consumption/use.
They’re clunky and no one wants to carry them around or hoof them back and forth to the rooms in the heat.
Smart.
They are basically a cup of coffee in the morning and a thirst quencher after the parks for us. Mostly a souvenir really. It stays in the room the whole trip.

We had the drink package and not only that, we got it for half price so it was much cheaper for us. Not Disney though.

Yes, we had the drink package, although we were able to get it at half price. This was when cruising was first getting restarted. We don't even really drink, but I figured "why not" and I'm glad we had it. It was nice to order what I wanted without worrying about it. I suspect no such good deals now unfortunately.
Correct, the price isn’t bad if you have a relative to pay for it.

For the current quality it is over the top.

It varies quite a bit. The Starbucks prices at Disney are only a small increase vs. my local Starbucks. I’m sure that’s because of some agreement with Starbucks.
The oak-grilled salmon at Sunshine Seasons is a great deal, especially if you get the kids portion. ($7.69).
The grilled chicken bowl at the canteen in avatar land is quite good as well ($12.99).

I was at a show at the amphitheater at the Florida State fairgrounds this past Sunday. I was thinking about getting one of the mixed drinks they were selling but I couldn’t really justify the $20 price tag. Granted, they were pretty large but it still seemed like a lot.
