BND Posted April 7, 2008 #5 Share Posted April 7, 2008 115,750 hamburgers doesn't sound like enough. It doesn't say pounds. It's only 751 burgers per ship per day. The beer consumed alone is more than the burgers and there are kids eating burgers too. We are a bunch of alcoholics. Don't the bars have fountain drinks for mixing drinks?

maxamuus Posted April 7, 2008 #6 Share Posted April 7, 2008 Where does Carnival have fountain soda? Dont they have the guns in the bars? Like if you order a rum and coke they use the gun for the coke? I never really paid attention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MamaParrotHead Posted April 8, 2008 #7 Share Posted April 8, 2008 Dont they have the guns in the bars? Like if you order a rum and coke they use the gun for the coke? I never really paid attention. We usually spend atleast a little time lounging at the bars here and there, chatting with the bartenders. And they have the cans they use for all the mixers...on the Valor and Triumph, anyway. :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dan40 Posted April 8, 2008 #13 Share Posted April 8, 2008 All the fru fru drinks are made with rum, right? Look at the rum number compared to other boozes. No wonder folks complain of weak drinks. I'd think rum would be far and away #1 in booze used. Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beachbum6264 Posted April 8, 2008 Author #17 Share Posted April 8, 2008 Thanks for the info.... but does anyone have it broken down by ship? I know she could use that, but was looking more for what is used on a ship in an average week??? I'm glad I'm not doing that cooking, either :) (but then, I don't really do much at home anyway :D ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Click my link again, I edited it. For some reason the CC software moved the closing bracket after 'ship' to outside the URL tag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
