Anything you eat there is pretty much fast food or greasy snacks. Here is the link to their food places...
Great Adventure Food choices I would bring some healthy snacks just to be safe.
Have fun

OH they totally just had a show on this on Rachel Ray I think. . called eating out at parks and such. .
it showed all these things that were 400 calories or less. .. not all as healthy per se but damage control. .
depends on the park but it listed things like
kabobs - grilled meat no bread
candy apples - if you want/need sugar like 120 calories
I can't remember other things but I would think most of the meat options would be okay if you didn't eat all bread etc. .
it had funnel cake at like 1200 calories!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
so don't do that!

No such luck on bringng your own food..it's not allowed in the park! thats why you bring it in a cooler and leave it in your car. then when it's lunch time... you eat it by your car.... like tailgating.
it works for sure! i've done it many many many many times as a kid!!! And it's actually kind of fun.
