Well, we did this last year and I didn't think we could do it again, but I was wrong. I didn't say no to anything and we ate until satisfied every day for an average of $75. Some days were under and some over, so I averaged the total for the week. We spent $525.68 (including tips and tax) and averaged over 7 days is $75.09 per day 
. Now, when I wrote our meals last year, I got a lot of flaming feedback 
about our food choices, and hopefully it doesn't happen again. Yes, we ate a lot of chicken, burgers and pizza, but hey, it's DisneyWorld! We are a one-income family with a $20 a week dining out budget and the other 3-meals a day, 6-days a week, I'm the one cooking 
. And we are very healthy and eat healthy. We do the whole 3-a-day dairy, whole grains only, fruit and veggies with every meal and all that good stuff. So, it's part of the magic 
of Disney to eat out junk for a whole week. And you'll see one of my sons eat pizza about every day 
, and it's a big treat for him. At home, I make the pizza with whole wheat dough, low-fat cheese and wheat germ in the crust. So, to tell you the truth, if it means a whole week without me cooking and washing the dishes 
, I really don't care what they eat. Let them eat cake! (for breakfast if they want)

REVIEWS:
Planet Hollywood-The atmosphere was great, plenty of memorabilia to look at. A little scary to see automobiles hanging above you suspended from cables while you eat. Now, I had heard a lot about the chicken strips and they were way overrated. None of us like the flavor of the breading, a little too sweet for our tastebuds, but the BBQ burger was excellent! The sauce was delicious! The fries were okay, kind of bland. A took a little long to be served.
POP-The pizza took forever, apparently they forgot to put the order in and just kept making the individual sizes. I stood there for 25 minutes and got a pizza with crispy, (burned) pepperonis, but I wasn't about to wait for them to make another. So, we just ate it, despite the top it was good, or we were just very hungry.
