You might think that finding plant-based eats in Disney World is hard, but you could be wrong.
We’re seeing more plant-based options added to Disney World menus all the time! From plant-based Mickey waffles to plant-based Totchos to the Toasted “Lobster” Roll in Hollywood Studios, there are several snacks and meals that Disney World’s vegan guests can enjoy. Now we’re trying out even MORE plant-based options from Scat Cat’s Club at Disney’s Port Orleans Resort — French Quarter!
First up are the Sassy Sassagoula Sliders for $12, which feature three sliders with three distinct flavor profiles: spicy, sweet, and savory — the three “S’s,” if you will. Yes, they really are bringing the “sass” as their name suggests.
The first slider we tried was the spicy one — and when we say spicy, we mean 🔥🔥🔥. It’s made with fried green tomatoes with giardiniera and pepper jelly. This is certainly more spice than some Disney World guests might expect, so just consider yourself warned. But if you love spicy food, you will love this slider. There’s a hint of sweetness coming from the fried green tomato, but this one is just about bringing the heat! The slaw adds a nice bit of crunch.
The second one we tried was the savory slider. This one was IMMEDIATELY our favorite — it has a lot of garlicky salty flavor that nearly brought tears of joy to our eyes. It’s a “fish” cake with spicy rémoulade and arugula and it reminded us of a McDonald’s Big Mac, but with seafood flavors. However, this slider is VERY salty (hey, another “s” word!). The pickled red onions also added a nice tanginess to it.
Finally, we dug into the sweet slider. It’s a barbecue jackfruit sandwich with fried pickles and slaw with a sweet barbecue sauce. The fried pickles, which were nice and crispy, get a little lost by the flavor and texture of the jackfruit, and we would’ve liked more of them. We would eat these fried pickles on their own, too, so Disney might need to add these to the menu!
We also stopped in to grab some Plant-Based Beignets because why not? What’s great about these is that they’re good for people with pretty much any kind of food allergy. You do get an option to get one of three sauces, but we opted just to enjoy the beignets as is — and that was the perfect decision. They are DELICIOUS and don’t need any kind of sauce at all. They were drowned in powdered sugar (the ONLY way to eat beignets, right?) and were HUGE. We would TOTALLY eat these again!
