We had been in Hershey Park for a few days last week. I was surprised to have one of the waitresses tell me that most of the food items in the park are fried in peanut oil! We never ate at any of the food places in the park so I never had the opportunity to verify this, but just thought I'd make others aware of what I was told. Also, we ate at one of the restaurants at the Hershey Lodge - the hostess and our waitress were both very helpful with checking and doubling checking that they use only vegetable oil but I will tell you, on the kids menu, PBJ sandwhich is an option. I reminded our waitress and hostess and the chef that we are concerned about cross contamination and to be very cautious in the kitchen since they serve PBJ and everyone was very accomodating but guess what? The little girl sitting at the table right next to us ordered the PBJ sandwhich! I thought i was going to fall over! Thank God my DD was done with her dinner right about the time the other family's dinner with the PBJ arrived, and my husband took her out of the restaurant and in to the game room. Does it seem like Murphy's Law follows me around, or what!!!! Just wanted to relate our experiences and warn everyone about the peanut oil being used in the park!
Stay safe,
Diane
Wow, sorry you had such a bad experience. What are they thinking frying in Peanut Oil!! We were thinking of visiting Hershey, but definitely not now. I am so glad that you are home safe and sound. Thanks for letting us know!
