Where to find allergy chicken tenders? - The DIS Discussion Forums

dandemom · 10-23-2012, 03:12 PM

We are headed to WDW in January with 2 allergic children (non-anaphylactic to milk, soy, egg, peanut, tree nut). We have been there many times in the past but with all the changes in the last year, I am very confused where to find safe food at counter service locations. Given the controversy surrounding the Udi's/Enjoy Life rolls, I have decided to avoid the issue and bring our own hamburger and hot dog buns since one child has an egg allergy but both can have wheat. (I actually will order from wegoshop and tell them to shop at Walmart so I can check ingredients from home).

My question is: where do they currently have the allergy chicken tenders? Which CS and which TS offer them? We will be at all 4 parks and staying at Coronado.

Also, does anyone know if Coronado will make the allergy Mickey waffles at Pepper Market buffet?

Do you think Special Diets will be of any help to me since they no longer have lists?

Thank you!!

I would not count on Pepper Market having Mickey waffles. They're not owned by Disney and I've read some very mixed allergy reviews.

I don't think you'll find the chicken tenders at any locations not owned by Disney. Here's where I know of to get them.
MK: Columbia Harbour House
Epcot: American pavillion, Electric Umbrella
DHS: Sci-Fi Dine In Theatre, ABC Commissary, Backlot
AK: not sure
most resort CS other than AoA and CSR
most resort TS other than CSR

I also would not count on Pepper Market for the Mickey waffles--any non-Disney owned restaurant I've been at has not had them (eg. Fresh Mediterranean at Swan & Dolphin made pancakes)
I have been able to easily find them most resort QS/CS and most resort TS and all of the places that clanmcculloch listed in the parks!

Oh no! Pepper Market at CSR is not good with allergies? We are booked to stay there in march. Crap! We were trying to decide between PO and CSR. maybe we should switch?

If you have allergies and plan to eat at your resort you should definitely switch. Pepper Market is not WDW owned and does not do any of the allergy training or carry the special allergy foods.

AK used to have them at Restaurantasaurus, but I don't know if they currently do.

Thanks for all the input. I didn't think I could let them eat at Pepper Market, but I thought I'd ask. We aren't really planning to eat any meals at resort anyway.

American Pavillion no longer has chicken tenders on the menu for allergy free. They now offer grilled chicken instead. My son had the grilled chicken yesterday and loved it!

Well shoot, that stinks. In August we hadn't actually asked as DD14 and I wanted to try the steak (it wasn't a good steak but hey, it was something different at a QS location) and DD12 got a burger. Good to know they no longer have them.

Aw bummer! I really liked the allergy chicken tenders there, but at least good to know they have another option!
