And again, the menus and food served at Epcot have little relation to the 'real' food found in the countries they represent, but they had to downgrade the offerings to meet the demand of the palates of most of their visitors.

Trust me, even Bistro de Paris and Chefs de France have had to make changes with menus and ingredients and prep. Those changes were not popular with the management and chefs. The three stars who originally gave their name to the concept are I am quite certain ashamed of what it has become.

The dining plan and preference of quantity over quality has driven the food into the ground over the past decade. There are a few decent places on site, but the vast majority of those are not owned by Disney and are outside vendors.
