    I woud be very surprised if anything served in Tokyo Disney is actually not fresh. Japanese customers are very picky about fresh (often seasonal) food, and would not accept stale items. And Disney goes through an enormous amount of food daily, so items are not likely to go stale on the shelf awaiting sale. If something seemed "stale" it is likey the the flavor or preparation of the item is just not what you expected, and you are perceiving an unusual flavor or texture as staleness, when it is not.

    There is a reason this is often known as the BEST Disney Park. People are pleasant and prices are 1/3 the price of the US which proves it CAN be done. LOVE LOVE LOVE everything about it. They could have easily raised prices like the US park but it seems they have not. I have no desire to go to a US park again after this experience and actually plan on visiting Shanghai in February.

      I've found that my pallette greatly differs from DFB. I always take their opinion on what tastes good and bad with a grain of salt and take a look at the observations and images. I can guarantee this food probably wouldve tasted great to me.

    In America, cheese sauce and Mac and Cheese are both very sharp and strongly flavored. But, in Japan, the preference is for a "Gratin", wich has noodles baked in a very mild but rich, white sauce, which tates only very lightly of cheese. Also, in Japan, you can get Western-style all-beef hamburgers at McDonalds, Burger King or Wendys. But most Japanese prefer a Japanese-style "Hamburg" which is made of a mixture of ground beef, ground pork, breadcrumbs and spices. It is felt that this is lighter, less oily and more interesting than a plain beef burger. So they are everywhere, in Dennys, convenience stores and Jspanese burger chains like MOSS Burger. Unsurprisingly, Disney in Japan users them too.
    So this explains your disappointing "Cheeseburger". You had a Japanese-style burger with a Japanese-style cheese sauce. A Japanese customer probably would have gotten exactly what they expected and enjoyed it.
    I find the food at Tokyo DisneyLand and DisnetySea to be unimpressive. It seems mostly designed to look cute and pretty, not necessarily to be filling or taste that great. However, the prices aren't too bad, and the decor is usually impressive. I wouldn't visit Tokyo Disney just for the food, though.

    Heads up, melon bread is just a name. It contains no melon or melon flavoring. Its called that due to its shape, there is however a slight sweetness to it.

    Just returned from Disney Sea. Absolutely incredible park, but getting meals was very challenging. 30+ minute waits for all counter service options, while the kiosks had very limited options. Definitely recommend planning ahead and leaving plenty of time to acquire food before ride or show reservations.

    I personally prefer Japan’s selection far more than the offerings at Orlando/California. Quality, lower prices and a much larger variety of options when it comes to snacks or full meals.
    It all depends on personal tastes after all but I always feel so heavy or just underwhelmed by the tastes of the food in the US? Especially when most items are very high in costs.

    I'm a HUGE Disney fan, fluent in Japanese, and I've lived in Japan just to preface this. The food at the Tokyo parks can be super hit and miss, so I don't think this video is being overcritical at all tbh. The food quality is better in Japan for sure, but that doesn't mean there is no bad food in Japan. There is a LOT of bad food out there unfortunately..
    When I went to the Tokyo Disneyland park in 2023 I was actually pretty disappointed in the food tbh. The snacks and popcorn were awesome, but the meals fell flat compared to other parks like USJ. With that being said, food is SO SUBJECTIVE so to each their own! ❤

    So, once upon a time, Tomorrowland Terrace WAS Cosmic Rays at WDW. You could eat a meal and watch live bands on stage. In the early 90s, live bands were replaced by a big screen TV that played Goofy How To videos. Sonny Eclipse showed up for the 25th, and the Tomorrowland Terrace name was then given to that large area on the other side of Tomorrowland that has a ton of seating, but roped off all day because they don’t want to deal with cleaning it before the desert party later that night.

    This is my wild guess as a Japanese about the bone in the croissant….’Manga meat/Anime meat’ is stereotypical fake meat for Japanese animations. They prob wanted to show Gaston’s masculinity and barbarism with the meat…? Still bizarre tho😅

    A lot of American UA-camrs seem to criticize the counter-service food available at Tokyo Disney Resort especially their burgers and pizza. However, the majority of those food offerings are beloved by the parks' primary audience, the Japanese. If you, Americans, don't like them, it's because they are not made or catered to your taste. You would see a lot of Japanese Disney fans get disappointed or utterly disgusted by how nasty, greasy, and overly sweet or gigantic the food at your parks in Orange County, CA and Orlando, Florida are. Do we, Japanese, go on UA-cam and criticize your food then? No. we do not because it's not our place to critique your parks. I kindly ask you to do the same and know where you stand; Tokyo Disney is not your resort. Also, do not be or try to be American in Japan; you will just stick out and get hammered down or disappointed.
