New Foods for 2010

Some changes to the park food this year consists of no more frozen pizzas!  Cedar Point is done with the “cardboard” pizza crusts and they will be using fresh crust.  Also they are going to cut it in six slices per pizza, meaning you will get bigger pieces.  Some locations will have “pizza sticks” with some kind of cheese and pizza sauce.

Other changes are Great Lakes Beer at Red Garter Saloon, Hot Dogs made from all-beef Sugardale brand Hot Dogs…

Cedar Point - Chuck Wagon

…and the last change will be the Chuck Wagon will be Montgomery Inn Ribs, all western style.
