In the old days, I believe they were made at a Disney facility on Facilities Way. The Cheryl's Cookies came into effect as of at least last year.

I wonder why. Disney still makes a ton of its own treats. Is it just a post-covid, “we like everything facing other guests to be covered to avoid spread of disease” thing? I assume it would be cheaper for Disney to make their own chocolate chip cookies.In the old days, I believe they were made at a Disney facility on Facilities Way.

We just got a bunch of Cheryl's cookies as a gift last week. We hadn't heard of them before then, but they are definitely tasty.
I assume some of it has to be the packaging aspect. Even prior to covid my nurse wife was never a big fan of non-individually sealed items. I also have to imagine that with economies of scale, it may actually be cheaper for Disney to subcontract these treats out, rather than make them on site. No need to alter baking patterns, order special/more ingredients, and run extra shifts for non-standard treat making. The individual packaging also likely makes storage easier and keeps them fresher for longer. We always end up taking cookies and treats home from the parties, and i imagine these will hold up better.

They thankfully chose a company that doesn’t use preservatives, so at least there’s that. They’ll start to go stale in a few days if you don’t freeze them.

Too bad they don’t give out Mrs Fields sugar butter cookies, those are fire! Yet to have or find anything as good. Granted I never had Cheryl’s sugar cookies only the snickerdoodles.

The variety of cookies offered also improved greatly when they switched over to Cheryl's.

Which likely aligns with the theory that it’s primarily locals who are less likely to want a work night or school night. And tourists that are perhaps choosing one event during their week-long vacation are not picking JN over mvmcp.

Disney did themselves (as well as their guests) a major disservice. They saw ticket sales were slow and a positive WoM could've sold the rest of the nights out, and the event launched with some of the most negative reviews for a Disney Parks thing in a while.

Related to the cookie conversation, we miss the soft pretzels that were in the shape of snowmen that they gave out a few years back. Those things were so good.

The 6pm Tron VQ drop lasted for ~4 hours 55 mins for tonight's party. This also means that the VQ lasted for pretty much the entire party as BG's stop getting called 1 hour before the party ends (11pm with 12am end time).
For comparison to the previous 6pm drops during the recent parties on Friday (11/10), Monday (11/13), and Tuesday (11/14):

Does this mean we can get multiple VQ slots during the party or are we limited to 1 ride per person?

Only way to get on Tron multiple time without an ILL is when it's in Standby which should be during MK's After Hours Events next year.
I think you can get on it twice with a Day Ticket and a Party Ticket as well?
Three times: Day-VQ, Day-ILL, Party-VQ
