We are coming to you LIVE from Walt Disney World this weekend, as we learn even more of what’s in store this fall for the 2015 Epcot Food and Wine Festival!
The Festival, which celebrates its 20th anniversary in 2015, will run for more than 7 weeks this year. That’s 53 days to enjoy all the food, wine, and fun that this event has to offer.
But that’s not all that’s been happening this week. While we’re busy learning more of what’s coming, let’s take a look at some of the food that’s made headlines this week.
