EVERYone loves Gideon’s cookies!
Gideon’s
The rich, famous, and influential – – from politicians and royalty to rock stars and Hollywood icons – – have been visiting Disney’s theme parks since Disneyland opened back in 1955. However, it’s admittedly not that often we see one of the most famous faces in the country chow down on one of the resort’s trademark desserts for all to see.
Recently, Ryan Seacrest – – he of massive pop cultural fame – – took to his Instagram account with a clip of himself enjoying a decadent Gideon’s chocolate chip cookie.
Set to the smash hit pop song “Espresso” by (ironically enough, former Disney star) Sabrina Carpenter, the clip shows Seacrest unwrapping and eating one of the bakehouse’s cookies, including dunking the final bite in a large glass of milk. The clip was accompanied by a caption which read, “POV: I’m comfort eating because summer is going by too quickly. Happy #NationalChocolateChipCookieDay 🍪”

Seacrest is no stranger to being in the public eye. Among his many credits are hosting duties on American Idol, American Top 40, and On Air With Ryan Seacrest. In addition, the affable host has carved out a bit of a niche for himself by filling the shoes of entertainment legends. He’s been the host of Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve since the Clark’s death in 2012, and was the longest-running replacement for the late Regis Philbin on the long-running show the latter had hosted with Kelly Ripa (Live with Kelly and Ryan lasted from 2017 to 2023). In September 2024 he’ll be taking over Wheel of Fortune after the retirement of longtime host Pat Sajak.
