Disneyland Donating Food Inventory to an OC Food Bank

The March 12 announcement from Disneyland Resort, that Disneyland park and Disney California Adventure will be temporarily closing in the face of the coronavirus, surely brought a question to many fans' minds: What will happen with the famous food that's synonymous with The Happiest Place on Earth?

Here's the answer: All "excess food inventory" at the Anaheim parks is being donated to Second Harvest Food Bank, an organization seeking to "end hunger in Orange County."

The announcement was made on the official Disneyland blog on Friday, March 13.

I didn't see anything about that in the article I read yesterday about the closures.

And many of them will continue working which without all the customers will not be a dangerous environment.
