Snack & Dining Nostalgia- what do you miss?

I remember going to Disney as a little girl (1991-1995 ish) and there being these massive barrels at lots of snack locations. They used to contain pickles.. huge ones! I see the familiar massive turkey legs but I have yet to see a pickle in a barrel!

Also the soft serve machene at Gasparilla Island Grill when I was a kid was amazing. You could pull these huge servings of vanilla choc swirl and cover them with sprinkles. Those were the days!

Anyone else have anything they would like to see again?!

The Star Wars character breakfasts at the Sci Fi diner during the Star Wars weekends.
Great food. Star Wars pastries, blue milk, the Imperial Delight (Caramelised Banana Stuffed French toast with Caramel Sauce and Strawberry Compote) and at the end the sweet surprise.
Great characters Darth V, Boba, Greedo, Stormtroopers and Jawas.
All while sitting watching Star Wars clips.

The character dining at Chef Mickey's used to be random characters - and lots of them. I remember Prince John demanding my mum's engagement ring for taxes . We also did a great experience where we had breakfast then were walked to the ToT (it must have been around the time it opened). Lots of Aladdin characters at that breakfast too. I really miss Ken's blue cheese sauce packets too, so much so, I want to start a campaign to bring them back
Also the McDonald's fries locations dotted around the parks: Refreshment Port at Epcot, Trilo-bites at AK, there was one near Splash at MK and I can't remember the HS one, but they were a great snack... although I do like some of the replacement items in these places

Definitely the Star Wars breakfast, pricey but brilliant. I'd be gobsmacked if they didn't bring it back at a new location at Galaxies Edge when open.

Le Cellier being one ddp credit at lunch was great as well.
