We’re planning our first trip to Orlando with our children, for two weeks and visiting several of the big parks. I have food intolerances, as does my son. I can’t eat fried or high fat foods, they make me really ill. I can’t eat bread as I’m allergic to yeast. I’m very intolerant of histamine in food and so have to avoid or limit certain foods (it’s an accumulative intolerance). I don’t like sugary foods or puddings. Three of us are lactose intolerant. I know this all sounds impossible but in the UK/Europe I can usually find something to eat though I prefer to always take a villa so we can home prepare foods and I can recover with foods I can eat if a restaurant meal makes me ill.
Do you think I’ll be able to find foods I / we can eat in the parks and local restaurants or is it all hot dogs, pizza, burgers, fried food, donuts etc? Will I need to take food in with me, and is this allowed? We stayed in Disneyland Paris years ago and I couldn't find anything I could eat, even though we were staying in the hotel with the ‘best’ restaurant. I did manage to find a Macdonalds salad in the park, which was a small bowl of iceberg lettuce. If I get too hungry, out of desperation I may eat something I can’t and end up being ill for three days!
is it easy to buy fresh fruit and veg there? Do some of the restaurants have good salads and ‘healthy’ options? Needless to say my kids and husband will happily eat burgers and pizza every day!
