food IS a theme park
Happy 4th of July, everyone!
Patriotic Pluto Photo Op on Independence Day in 2021
To celebrate this patriotic holiday, Disney World is rolling out some 4th of July merchandise, plus offering fireworks at both Magic Kingdom and EPCOT, and, of course, some limited time treats and food offerings! Today, we’re heading to Disney Springs to try one of those limited time treats.
Is there anything more American than a hot dog?

Disney is celebrating 4th of July with new merchandise, fireworks (duh), and some red, white, and blue and American takes on new treats and eats! We recently headed to Casey’s Corner in Magic Kingdom to try a new, limited-time 4th of July hot dog!
It’s almost Independence Day!

If you’re going to be in Disney World for the holiday, there are special limited-time 4th of July snacks that have made their way into the parks! We’re here to tell you what’s worth your money and what’s not, starting with a snack from EPCOT.
The 4th of July is bringing some patriotic experiences to Disney World!

Disney World guests can partake in the festivities by watching “Disney’s Celebrate America! – A Fourth of July Concert in the Sky” at Magic Kingdom, snagging patriotic merchandise, or biting into a July 4th-inspired treat! And speaking of treats, we headed over to Magic Kingdom to try a star-spangled dessert!
Welcome to Magic Kingdom! There is so much merchandise here, that sometimes it’s hard to keep track of it all!
Let’s head over to Frontierland!
But don’t worry, that’s why we keep track of it for you and let you know when new merchandise, like the Haunted Mansion merch and $500 pair of Minnie ears we recently found in the park, is out! Which is why we have to let Star Wars fans know about the new MagicBand we found!
It’s no secret that Disney World loves to come out with a limited-edition treat to keep up with the old classics here and there.

And it’s also probably no secret that here at DFB, we love a good limited-edition treat, too! Disney food is kind of our thing, and over in Magic Kingdom we tried a holiday snack that sounded too simple to be anything special — let’s find out if we were wrong!
Spaceship Earth at EPCOT might just be one of Disney World’s most iconic sights.
Spaceship Earth at Night
Ahead of Disney World’s 50th Anniversary Celebration, the icon-that’s-also-an-attraction got an upgraded lighting scheme that allows Imagineers to do a lot of creative nighttime light effects. We’ve seen Spaceship Earth with its EARidescent shine on, but we’ve also seen it pay homage to The Muppets and light up in beautiful holiday colors. Now, Spaceship Earth is about to get a patriotic look!
CHANGE is the name of the game in Disney World these days.
Is this a must-do for you?
We’ve seen big changes in the narration over at the Tomorrowland Transit Authority PeopleMover, changes with the TRON construction, changes on food menus, and more. Now, change has impacted another Disney World ride — the beloved Carousel of Progress!
Do you love Disney food as much as we do?
Cheshire Cafe
It’s our middle name after all, which is why we’ve been ALL over Disney World today checking out all kinds of amazing NEW snacks, including a fun 4th of July slushy, new menu items at Mama Melrose’s, and a Baymax treat! But we’re just getting started because we’ve got a NEW snack to share with you — and this one has a KEY on it. [Read more…]
Well, we didn’t expect to find a devil on our treat in Disney World, but here we are.
The Friar’s Nook
Friar’s Nook at Magic Kingdom has a few menu items right now that nod to a throwback ride — Mr. Toad’s Wild Ride. This attraction has been closed at Disney World for more than 20 years, but the Nook is honoring its legacy as part of Disney World’s 50th Anniversary celebrations. You can get a Wild Toad Brat Burger here, or try the Wild Ride slushy. There used to be a Mr. Toad’s Dome Cake here as well, but now it’s been REPLACED by something a little more sinister.
