    I have to agree on the turkey legs. Ick!! However I must admit the Mickey ice cream bars are a favorite of mine & I have one every trip.

    Oh wow, I must be the fool you all speak of. LOL.

    I don't always get a rice crispy treat, but I do get them from time to time and I actually really enjoy them!

    Youngest DS can't seem to go a day without a Mickey ice cream bar when we are in WDW.

    And while I've always thought the turkey legs looked caveman like, when my son asked to get one a few trips back we ordered one. We got it in Epcot and sat at the tables outside in the American Pavillion. It actually tasted quite good, but was a mess to eat.

    The only think I can think of off the top of my head is the already mentioned bags of generic candy slapped in a Goofy's Candy bag. Those have never been of any interest to my family.

    In my comment, I wasn't talking about not liking something due to pricing. Price is all relative at Disney. I know price was mentioned by the OP, but to me the question was more about what snack everyone else seems to love that we don't understand the appeal of in comparison. I certainly don't think anyone else is a fool for liking what I don't, and I hate to see a good topic sidetracked by price arguments. What's worth it to some isn't for others, obviously. There's something for everyone, yay. But that doesn't mean we can't talk about our personal preferences.

    I think that the powder candy tubes are insane...I can't believe the prices for a tube of candy (that always gets clogged and has to be thrown away)...I know my kids like them and I have bought them in the past but if I can talk them out of it in exchange for something else then I'm happy!

    I agree. This has my vote. Ive never understood the draw to this. I imagine an adult would just get a headache from it and kids would just become insanely hyper from some over priced colored sugar.

    LOL! Never underestimate the power of something Mickey shaped.

    I don't like the taste of the rice crispy treats either, but I somehow get strangely excited at the sight of them. The girls love them. None of us have ever been tempted to try a turkey leg. DH, DD8 and I always have to have a Mickey ice cream bar or two on our trip. DD12 usually goes for a popsicle.

    LOL!!!! Anything Mickey Shaped gets attention!
    I am going to be looking for the Mickey Shaped Soft Pretzel on my next trip!

    I am sad to say I have never tried a Mickey ice cream bar.

    I am sure my DS will also want one of those over priced double Mickey balloon too!
