food IS a theme park
It’s a Christmas miracle!
Magic Kingdom
The hugely popular Mickey and Minnie Gingerbread House Popcorn Bucket is now available in Magic Kingdom during the daytime! At the beginning of the season, it was only available at Disneyland, but then it became available at Magic Kingdom ONLY during Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party. Then it was available in limited quantities at some of the Disney World hotels with gingerbread displays.
A new shop has been on its way to Disneyland, and today is finally the day that we can see inside!
Disneyland’s Haunted Mansion
This new store is inspired by a very famous character from Disney’s Haunted Mansion — can you guess who? She reaches the spirits beyond and calls them forth. There’s much to learn from this bodiless character, so let’s step inside the new store to see what we can find!
Traveling is stressful enough.
Orlando International Airport
Between booking your trip, getting to the airport, checking your bags, going through security, and boarding your flight, you are already exhausted by the time you get on the plane. You are probably just ready to watch a movie, read a good book, and maybe even take a nap, but when you get to your assigned seat, you are surprised to find someone already sitting in it. This is a brand new trend that is hitting airplanes, and it is called “seat squatting.”
Happy holidays and Merry Christmas! It’s officially the week of Christmas, and we’re hitting the parks to enjoy all the festive activities.
Christmas at Magic Kingdom
The week of Christmas is one of the busiest times of the year. Many people enjoy spending the holidays with friends and family at the Disney World resort. It truly is one of the most magical places on Earth to celebrate Christmas. You can celebrate at Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas Party, Jollywood Nights, and the EPCOT Festival of the Holidays. You can enjoy special holiday treats and the jolliest holiday atmosphere ever. But when we say that this time of year is BUSY, we really mean it. Here’s a bit of proof for ya!
Say it ain’t so!
A Guinness
The holiday season might be a bit less enjoyable for revelers in the U.K. — and maybe further — thanks to a shortage of the iconic beer Guinness. According to various reports, a surprise “surge in demand” has left many of the United Kingdom’s pubs in short supply of the iconic spirit as the busy holiday season looms.
We can’t believe it, but we are DAYS away from Christmas! Park Pass Reservations have been becoming more and more scarce for Christmas week. Magic Kingdom Park Passes are sold out from December 24th through December 31st, Disney’s Hollywood Studios is sold out on December 27th, and EPCOT is sold out on December 31st.

Some days in January are also selling out now, and we have ALL the details for you!
It has certainly been a tumultuous year when it comes to TV shows. If you’re a fan of TV, you’ll know that this year saw a lot of changes, including a TON of cancellations of shows that many thought were bonafide hits.
A lot of TV shows are going through some things
However, with streaming now the main way people watch TV, the metrics have changed, and it seems that if a show doesn’t take off immediately, its fate is up for grabs, so some shows will be airing their last seasons in 2025. But there have also been some announcements about other shows getting rebooted, getting sequels, or getting spin-offs that we’ll see in the coming year. So let’s take a look at what 2025 has in store for these shows.
Universal Studios Hollywood has been undergoing a large transformation as part of their Universal Evolution Plan. We are excited to see the new spaces and offerings being built on almost 400 acres of land!

The Universal Evolution Plan includes “additions to the existing studio, theme park, retail and entertainment uses including CityWalk, and the introduction of new hotels on approximately 391 acres in the Universal City area.”
If you’ve been following along with us at DisneyFoodBlog, you might have gotten the impression that we have a personal vendetta against Disney World buses. And I get it.
Disney Bus
It feels like we’re always out here waving our caution flag, warning you about all the potential pitfalls of relying on those iconic (and free!) Disney buses for your transportation needs. But here’s the kicker: We actually like the Disney World buses!
Santa is almost here!
Christmas in Magic Kingdom
We have celebrated the holidays for over a month now, thanks to Disney World’s festivities like Jollywood Nights and Mickey’s Very Merry Christmas party. It’s our favorite time of the year and now even more spots in Disney World are getting in on the fun.
