I think the introduction of the dining plan was where the food pricing started to get out of control. It seemed to me that a la carte prices escalated rapidly once the the dining plans were established to make the dining plans look like a better value (and thus by getting visitors to go with dining plan, they got visitors locked in to only eating on property and into prepaying for food.) I found the food prices on our last trip (in 2016) literally left me with a bad taste in my mouth.

I eat about 1700 calories normally. I bump that to around 2500 on my Disney trips. If I got the meal plan, I could easily double that. I don’t eat enough for the meal plan to make sense to me.
