Disney is taking heat for selling $10 peanut-butter-and-jelly sandwich kits to guests stranded at one of its Orlando, Florida resorts amid the catastrophic threat of Hurricane Milton, which made landfall last night and has already killed at least nine people.
A viral TikTok posted yesterday by one guest marooned within Disney World highlighted the kits—replete with jars of peanut butter and jelly, a loaf of bread, and plastic utensils—prompting some commenters to praise the offering as thoughtful and many others to criticize its hefty price tag.
The video also appeared to show that the resort was selling its Disney—themed board games for a special mid-hurricane deal of 25 percent off—presumably so that the guests have a way to pass the time as 3.4 million Floridians have been left without power.
The woman, whose account brands her as “Disney Mama,” waited out the storm at the park with her partner and one-year-old infant.
The caption on one clip she posted read, “I love staying at Disney’s Moderate Resorts, but in situations like this, the sense of security while staying in a Deluxe Resort would be more settling.”
