    I'm just guessing. I understand it at sit-down restaurants, but otherwise it's silly.

Makes sense though at the sitdown restaurants, and buffets (which I hope were enforcing it anyway).

    That wouldn't really work either. Some kids need to eat more often than an adult would, so if your kid needs to eat, you have to buy food for yourself too?

    The discussion was on another board where at Blue Bayou someone (an adult) was apparently told they couldn't order a kid's meal anymore. As others have said, the only place to really enforce this is a table service location.

    Of course lowering the prices might help to!

    However, that is not a solution when I am at the park alone.
