Commissary is pretty good, it's been our go to because the whole family can get something. However, QS is good at DHS because of the SWGE additions imo.

The ridiculous seating in SWGE keeps me away.

At least we've brought the food service discussion back to DHS...

They don’t actually give it to Disney for free. This is a misconception.

Have you seen the contract?
Often a sponsorship includes certain things for free. Maybe it’s just the syrup. Maybe it’s the machines and maintenance. Maybe it’s the cups and lids. But it’s usually something.

They don't get it for free, but they do get it at a large discount due to the agreement to only sell Coke products in the parks.
The reason I know this is because the movie theater I worked at has the same agreement. Coke is in that same agreement with multiple businesses. The difference with Disney, and the reason their particular agreement is so complex, is the fact that they're also in bed with each other on branding and tie-ins which is not a factor in most of the other relationships Coke has with massive corporations. I would not be surprised if that factor of their relationship means Disney gets an even larger discount than other businesses.
But they do indeed pay for it. Coke is notorious for their bean counting, maybe even more so than Disney is.

Having worked in the park for 4 years and visited as a guest nearly 100 times, it's the one QSR I've never eaten in. I never could understand the appeal other than the Amazing Air Conditioning.

Free enough not to charge $6.50 for a bottle of Dasani... Or $20 for a refill mug that's only refillable in a resort where it's costing the company pennies on the dollar to maintain. The 1000% markup on fountain drinks is probably their 2nd biggest money maker under Genie (this is semi-sarcasm, I have no financial reports to back this up)....

The Mediterranean salad with chicken and hummus at ABC is arguably the best quick service meal on property

Years ago I got a free water cup at the boardwalk candy shop (the one the magic bar replaced) and then went and got a refill at the bakery. I totally forgot that I got that cup for free and filled it with iced tea or something like that.
I felt a little guilty. But just a little haha.

I filled an iglo cooler up once at Backlot Express with diet coke. I was set for the rest of my trip.

They might as well put it where the Monstahs are because they screwed up that area. It would have been much better if they kept the New York theming. It no longer makes sense at all.

I think the Shanghai pirates ride system is more likely to be destined for Moana at MK.
I wonder if one of the reasons Moana got pulled from D23 2024 was due to capacity concerns if they went with the patent for the ride system that looked like her ship, so it went back to the drawing board. Remember Disney canned the original Quinjet Avengers E ticket due to capacity issues as well.

If this is true, I wish Bob was more passionate about drilling a capacity mandate at WDI, versus an IP mandate. Imagineering knows they need to move tens of thousands of folks per day - the desire for story and immersion cannot supersede this simple operational fact.

I wonder if we are going to get s late Friday announcement telling us where Monsters is going?
If Iger was smart he would announce late on election night as no one would notice.
