what would y'all say is the best food you can eat at any park? For me it's a tie between the mini corn dogs i ate at Cedar Point, and a pretzal with mustard on it that you could eat at most any park.

I would have to say Knoebels as of right now. I think that Hershey has a nice variety, but most of the food is mainly average. Knoebels has quality, value and variety.
The best single food for me is Center Stage fries at Dorney.
I'm interested to see what the midwest brings me...

Knoebels has the best park food ever & the price for them are so cheap. The International Food Court's without a doubt the best food stand I've ever ate at. Considering that I'll hardly ever eat at amusement parks because of their outrageous prices, this is an exception. I only ate the American cuisine, but I've heard that their Mexican cuisine's amazing. Kennywood's Potato Patch would be next for me, although I do find the place to be somewhat overrated at times.

I haven't been to Knoebels, but from the parks i've been to, I thought that Sea World Orlando had the best food.

Knoebels... let me count the ways...
* Teaberry and/or bittersweet ice cream
* Big Ben's Birch Beer... clear or blue
* Tri-Taters
* Rib-B-Q
* Chicken & Waffles with bacon dressing... god
* Fudge Whirzle
* Pierogies with mustard
... I could just go on forever...

Best Meals:
An Ohana's Dinner (well pretty much any Disney fine dining experience)
BGW's Trapper's Smokehouse platter
Schlitterbahn Galveston's Brisket (ok so the sauce is everything here)
Cheeseburger in Paradise from Margaritaville in City Walk (eh it sorta counts)
Buffalo Style Chicken at SFNE (thanks again to Larry for that recommendation)
Lake Compounce Catered Meals (specifically the kickin' buffalo sauce on the grilled sausage)
Best Sweets:
Dollywood's Cinnamon Bread
Dollywood's Funnel Cakes
Churros - any park, anywhere
Hersheypark - there is chocolate everywhere, duh!
I might think of more later...

frog legs and beer at coney island.
or chicken and waffles and knoebel's.
the pit beef at hershey under the storm runner was remarkably "real food" for an amusement park kiosk. it needed tons of hot sauce to really come to life, though. not quite as instantly appealing as simple roadside pit beef in baltimore...
i agree with larry that the kettle corn at hershey is very tasty...
i can't remeber details, but i had a fascinating open face sandwich at kennywood that was drenched in gravy. it tasted like the kind of thing you could have bought there 30 years ago and it would have tasted the exact same...
______________________________________________________
i had some awful crap at lake compounce recently that made me sick. i remember cedar point being dreadful too. kings dominion is basically the same mediocre flavorless expensive crap too.

If price is not a consideration and since the title is best food I assume it is not. No place matches up to EPCOT. The variety on world showcase cannot be touched and the quality is veery good also.

My favorite place to eat is Mytho's at Islands of Adventure. Absolutly amazing food there, and the burgers at Captain America's place in Marvel Super Hero Island are pretty sweet as well.
Overall I got to say I enjoy BGAs food the most. Love the new smokehouse. Their bread pudding is freakin' delicious.

Taco, mythos used to be great, but they redid their menu a few years ago, and ruined all of my favorite meals. Stupid on their part.
I love eating at-
The Blue Bayou Disneyland- Amazing Atmosphere
Cafe Orleans Disneyland- Beautiful Location
The French Cafe at Epcot
The golden vine winery at Disney's California Adventure - Great Wines from Robert Mondavi.
Sorry disney haters.

Well my first time at Mythos was only last summer, so if they re-did their menu I had no idea. If it was better than it is now, holy crap I can't imagine how amazing it was then.

Canobie's pizza at the Portofino Restaurant is the best food I have had at any park along with their fried dough.
Knoebels has the best variety by far.
Quassy has some really good fish and chips and fried dough.

I would have to say WDW has the best food. They have some of the best fine dinning that I have had. I will be going to Knoebels in oct so I will see if I like their food better.

Knoebels' food is really good and they have an outstanding variety from burgers to pizza. They even have corn-on-the-cob and grilled cheese sandwiches.
