TikToker Trevor Cottrell (@trevorcc_) recently shared a video of himself sneaking leftover meat from Roundup Rodeo BBQ in Disney’s Hollywood Studios at Walt Disney World Resort. Since the family-style table service dining experience doesn’t offer takeout containers, Cottrell improvised:

The clever Guest filled his refillable popcorn bucket with the leftovers and immediately took them home! Hundreds of commenters praised Cottrell’s ingenuity.
“Note to self- pack tupperware for our Hollywood Studios day,” said @caitlinwynne1.
“They had no takeout boxes at [‘Ohana] last week and I was so irritated,” @robpswife wrote. “*bring buckets and ziplocks*.”

“It honestly made me so mad that they will not do take out boxes,” @rachgroms agreed. “The amount of food waste was infuriating for a company that preaches sustainability.”
Still, some felt Cottrell’s actions would ruin the experience for others in the future.
“Delete this now before they catch on and change rules,” @mattwelsh said.

“It’s an all you care to eat not all you care to take,” @kl_flocco argued.
Currently, no official rule forbids taking food you purchase from restaurants at Magic Kingdom, EPCOT, Disney’s Animal Kingdom, Disney’s Hollywood Studios, or Disney Springs. But it’s best to follow Disney Cast Member instructions when dining at the Disney Parks.

“Rustle up some tasty BBQ fare at this western-themed restaurant where you’ll see the world through the eyes of Andy’s toys,” the official Walt Disney World restaurant description reads. “Discover what it feels like to be one of Andy’s honorary toys. At Roundup Rodeo BBQ, you will be surrounded by Andy’s rodeo at play––everything from western towns and train station playsets.”
“Plus, take a gander at images of popular characters, including a larger-than-life display of Jessie riding on the back of a Trixie pull toy! You can also view a scene of Bo Peep and her sheep posed to perform in the rodeo. Grab a meal and enjoy a whimsical kaleidoscope of toys, games and playsets!”

This is about taking food out of all you can eat restaurants. I believe as long as you do not get seconds on any of food your original portions should be yours to take
If you go get seconds or thirds and cannot eat everything on your plate, I think you should be able to take it with you. The restaurant is going to have to throw it away anyway.
HOWVER, it is NOT right to eat your fill and then go get more just to take home.
This would be hard for the restaurant to govern, but maybe if the server sees the plate half empty, that would be a good clue.
Most all you can eat restaurants do not allow take out for legal reasons. This is low class no matter how you look at it and what makes it worse is the food at the Round up is just plain BAD. The biscuits are great but all of the meat is dry and you need a chainsaw to get through the brisket. Disney still has no clue on certain food items and good BBQ is one, it requires LOW AND SLOW to have any chance and they are not set up for that.
As others have said, I think if you’re not getting seconds just to take the food home. If it’s what was left on your plate to begin with then no worries. It’s just going to get thrown away anyhow. The problem is that most people would get seconds just to take it home, it really is something that’s too difficult to be monitored
The bottom line is all the food at your table that is not eaten or carried out is THROWN AWAY!!! Sinful! You pay $65 for this meal and then can’t take the leftovers back to the DVC room you paid a fortune for, that has a kitchen, and you can’t enjoy your leftovers because they are in the garbage?? Just another gesture Disney could offer that would make their loyal customers happy.
It’s one thing if you do t ask for extras and you can’t eat what they bring in the first place cuz I always try to take it home but it’s an other thing when you are being greedy and hoarding food.
