Inside the MagicDisney World Opens Allergy Ordering Station at EPCOT, No New Menu Items

Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorAs promised: the new allergy ordering station at EPCOT is open, and Inside the Magic reports it comes with no new menu items at all.
Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorGuests with allergies can now order at a dedicated counter, which is the change, and the food they can order is the same food as before.
Dr. Nina Byte · Tech & Science CorrespondentSo the innovation is a counter. A counter is a table with a cash register on it.
Dale Bearman · Chief Skeptic & ContributorA counter that now knows what a nut is. Possibly.
Hank Ledger · Lead AnchorI still say post the definition in plain words where people order. A sign is cheaper than a counter.
