WHAT did they do to the school bread?!?!?!

[DisneyAggies]

I know, I probably missed it somewhere...but WHY oh WHY did they change the school bread? It's about HALF the size now (like donut sized), and has just a smidgen of custardy filling in it.

DH and I were SOOOOO disapointed!! :(

[Insanity Clause]

It is proably just a means to cut costs. I think Disney is hurting just like everyone else and we just have to be understanding and hope that the economy gets better. Until then I think that this is probably the way things will be. Smaller portions for the same price.

[Simba's Mom]

Oh, No! I was so looking forward in 2 weeks. But thanks for the warning!

[Polynesian Dweller]

Smaller portions for the same price.
Same as your box of breakfast cereal. Smaller boxes same price. Its not unique to Disney.

[SurferStitch]

Yeah, we noticed it was much smaller when we were there in May. Oh well, at least I got to try one when they were still the original size.

[DisneyAggies]

Seriously, though, I'd could understand reducing the portion size by 20%, but seriously, it was the size of a donut.

I pointed at it through the glass and said to the CM, "That can't be school bread? Is it????"

VERY dissapointed! :(

[Disney Doll]

Actually it sounds good to me. I always thought the old school bread was way too rich and sweet. A smaller portion with less custard sounds just right.

That is what I was thinking too :)

Thanks for the warning! I was looking forward to one with a nice coffee while we're there in February, but 1/2 the size and the same price? I might just take the coffee.......

[Cinderelley]

Noooooooooooo!!!!!! Not my school bread!:(:crying::pout:

[Jeff G]

We just had our first one two weeks ago so I dnon't have anything to compare it to but it was much bigger than a doughnut. It took three of us to finish it and there was a ton of custard. For $2.50 we thought it was a lot of food for the price at WDW.

[Simba's Mom]

Of course, now that it's only 1/2 the size, it's 1/2 the price too.:rolleyes:Yeah, I know-not likely!

It went from high school bread to middle school bread.

I did notice that it was a little smaller, but what really surprised me was the topping. It used to be a white icing holding the coconut, but now it looks like more of a chocolate or possibly caramel, it is definitely dark in color where it used to be white. I was nervous at first, but I think it is actually improved the schoolbread a little (I honestly did not think that was physically possible), it seemed to be a little sweeter.

SACRILEGE!

With everyone so passionate about it, I will have to put it on my must try next trip list! :)

[Wickster1970]

Man.....and I was looking so forward to the school bread - almost as much as the infamous Dole Whip.
I will still get one of course....but since they are so small, maybe two.:confused:

[Crow]

and it was a fav snack of mine. used to get it once a trip or so. sometimes i got it for breakfast the next day.
part of the cutbacks..........

Sorry to ask but where do you buy school bread? I can't believe I haven't had this yet:secret: I read one post that mentioned coffee, does that mean there is good coffee served here as well?

[Simba's Mom]

Sorry to ask but where do you buy school bread? I can't believe I haven't had this yet:secret: I read one post that mentioned coffee, does that mean there is good coffee served here as well?I used to buy it at the Norwegian Bakery. And like a previous poster, I remember buying it for breakfast the next morning-it made for a great breakfast!
