Good thing these people don't operate attractions! Turkey Legs: You'll never go back!

And it just goes to show... EVERYBODY loves Turkey Legs (mmmmmmmmmm)! Turkey Legs: Baby's cry for them.

And flushed cheeks. Hmmmmm.) Turkey Legs: Eat 'em and sleep!

Does one actually walk around with that big ol' drumstick, or has Disneyland devised some sort of clever packaging to hold the turkey leg and make it look more "presentable?" Or is the point of the whole thing to just gnaw with abandon?

There is no special way to eat them, other than to grab one end and gnaw the other.

Originally Posted By DlandDug >>So I am curious: How does one eat a turkey leg without wearing half of it...<< No problem at all, K2M. Through some magical alchemy, Turkey Legs (mmmmmm) sold in the Resort are not the tender, moist turkey legs you may have enjoyed as part of a full Thanksgiving meal. No, the Turkey Legs (mmmmmmmmm) sold in the Resort are a solid mass of uniformly flavored and colored flesh, mingled with cartilage, and abounding with interestingly fused wax paper. Eating one provides not only an unforgettable snack, but a mental challenge as well! Turkey Legs: Like snowflakes, no two are alike.

One simply struts through the Park, proudly holding their big ol' drumstick for all to see. At $6 a pop, you should call a little attention to the snack before it is consumed. And why package this to make it more "presentable?" What could be more presentable than the denuded hind appendage of a large, flightless bird so stupid that whole flocks have been known to drown in their own watering pans? Turkey Legs: The prefered snack of aware French women.
