I'm hardly a disney defender, however, they actually have organic crops
growing on Disney property that feed into their on-site resaurants. They
have vegetarian entrees at most restaurants. They are also heavily IPM and
organic in their groundskeeping. Or at least that was the word in several
articles a couple of years ago (can't remember which magazines or where I
filed them :-)

NOPE

Actually, Mickey D's has banned GMO products in their European operations.
That's definitely market-driven. They haven't done so stateside because
they think it doesn't matter here.
