Umm... good?

Don't get me wrong, I appreciate the value of "known commodity" food items when travelling with small children (although, I also freely admit I haven't done it personally Wink )... but McDonald's is really the restaurant equivalent to pouring motor oil down your throat.  yes, they're slightly 'healthier' than they used to be... but they're still pretty low on the food chain.  There are still options there that serve "American", or at least recognizable to most small folk, food.  By the sounds of it, this new place will have more 'healthy' options... and these days, that can only be a good thing.

I think.  But I realize I may be alone in that *laugh*

Well there's good and bad in that...
Good because there are millions more healthy choices.
Bad because children love McDonalds.

It's going to be replaced by another "Fast Food" restaurant:

"Pollo Campero, an international Latin chicken quick-service restaurant chain, has partnered with franchisee Levy Campero to deliver a new restaurant concept in Downtown Disney Marketplace at Walt Disney World Resort. The restaurant will feature Pollo Campero’s signature Latin chicken, as well as a new restaurant concept featuring fresh, healthy food. It’s slated to open in late 2010."-from the Disney Blogs
