Lunching Pad New Menu (No Turkey Legs)

[GymLeaderPhil]

In a move that will probably shock many, The Lunching Pad has introduced a new menu featuring three hot dog combo meals. Besides the standard hot dog, the three varieties include a Philly Cheese Steak styled dog, a Reuben take on a hot dog, and one featuring taco toppings. They tested these additions earlier last month.

These additions, like the title states, have forced the removal of the turkey leg from the menu. However you can still find turkey legs in Frontierland.

Oh no, no more cream cheese pretzels?

The turkey legs I could live without (especially since they're still available in Frontierland) but losing the cream cheese pretzels would be a shame.

Are they gone for sure!?!

You can't get them in FL anymore now as they closed that spot next to Ariel's Grotto that use to sell them (the name escapes me at the moment).

They better still have those pretzels or I will not be a happy camper! :fork:

I don't see anything in the post about loosing the pretzels... just the turkey legs.:shrug:

 

[DisneyWall-E]

were they selling poorly or something?

 

[ryanduggers]

Turkey legs are gross.

i like this change. there is a certain degree of sameness across the park for food and snacks. making turkey legs a frontierland exclusive and giving tomorrowland a signature item is a good move for uniqueness. yay! :ROFLOL:

Aren't they really emu legs?

There's always turkey legs in Epcot.

 

[BrerFrog]

There are going to be riots over this. :lol:

 

[GymLeaderPhil]

Perhaps.

I'd imagine there is very little space in The Lunching Pad for something as big as prep for turkey legs. It would take some very large ovens to keep up with demand so I'd bet they are prepared elsewhere and then brought in. However it's quite a walk to the nearest kitchen compared with the Frontierland location's vicinity to Pecos Bills. So this may be more of a logistical improvement, rather than popularity or opinions in taste.

One of my favorite pictures is of my then 10 year old son eating a turkey leg. The new hot dog combos my DH would probably like. :slurp:

 

[OnWithTheShow]

Turkey leg prep is done in the Utilidor

 

[ScorpionX]

Say what, now?

 

[asianway]

They just havent tasted as good since they stopped calling them Alien Legs

 

[Random Vids Inc]

Not a turkey leg fan so I approve!

A small win for the "watching people eat turkey legs makes me want to vomit violently" crowd.
