food IS a theme park
Disney’s culture war with Ron DeSantis may officially be over.Â

After several years of political and legal battles, and several months of deescalation and settlement deals, Disney’s most recent legal action seems to indicate that the company’s long-running ideological battle with Florida’s governor has cooled.Â
Okay, here us out: we love Totchos — almost as much as we love plastic cheese. Okay, okay, we know that’s probably not anything new.
Roaring Fork
We’ve spent a lot of time talking about the Totchos at Woody’s Lunch Box in Hollywood Studios. There’s just something about those little potato barrels (tater tots, Disney, they’re tater tots) covered in toppings that just feels so satisfying every time we eat them. But Disney has done something that may be even better. The Totcho game has been ELEVATED! Because now we have the BEST Breakfast Totchos EVER.Â
Disney Springs is a place of constant changes!
Disney Springs
From new restaurants (like EET and Summer House on the Lake that opened last year) to new stores constantly swapping locations, it feels like no two visits to Disney Springs are the same these days. And if you’re looking for a new spot to shop during your next trip, we’ve got an important update!
With your Disney World trip rapidly approaching, we’ve got a bunch to talk about and no time to waste.
Magic Kingdom
Let’s forget about all the last-minute reservations (besides, you’ve got them!). We need to talk about the essentials you’re going to pack for the trip. We’ve got a list of tried and true Disney World essentials you need, so let’s go!
We FINALLY got to ride Tiana’s Bayou Adventure…and we’ve got a LOT to share with you! Come with us to be one of the FIRST to ride Magic Kingdom’s BRAND NEW ride — and see what YOU think about this ride re-theme!
How does it compare to Splash Mountain? How does the story play out? And WHY does it keep breaking down? These are ALL good questions, and they’re all tackled in the vid below!
UPDATE: Free Shipping has been extended through June 14!
We LOVE online shopping, especially when it comes to the Disney Store website. Cute Disney merch at just the click of a button? Count us in!

But what’s better than the convenience of online shopping? When your order comes with FREE shipping! So of course, as your Disney besties, we needed to let you in on all the best items available now on the official Disney Store website that are eligible for free shipping!
Are you looking for another excuse to plan a trip to Disney World? Well, we have the perfect reason for you!
Magic Kingdom
Disney World likes to celebrate the holidays a little early, and by early, we mean Halloween in August! Magic Kingdom will soon be gearing up to host Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween Party, but preparations for the party may start popping up sooner than you would think!
We’re still a ways away from the opening of Universal Orlando’s Epic Universe, but that hasn’t stopped us from being SUPER excited about Universal’s third park.

The new park will have a total of five NEW themed lands, meaning new rides — and more importantly — new RESTAURANTS. There will also be THREE new hotels, including one hotel that will be located INSIDE the park. Yep, Universal has BIG things in store for Epic Universe. How big? Well, let’s just say that the size of Epic Universe is now more than twice as big as we initially thought.
We’re just gonna come right out and say it: There are a lot of not-very-practical Disney World souvenirs. Those crystal-filled glass slippers you can get at Crystal Arts in Magic Kingdom? Super pretty. But are they practical? …eh, not so much. And do you really need eight new plushes? (I’m talking to myself with that one — somehow I always desperately want every single Disney stuffed animal even though I have no idea what to do with the ones I already have.)
Welcome to the Emporium!
However, there’s one souvenir that’s VERY practical and we think well worth what it costs!
We’ve already seen a ton of BIG changes in Disney World in 2024, but more change is on the way. And this one will be CONTROVERSIAL!
Main Street, U.S.A.
Although the multi-year massive EPCOT transformation is complete (and the construction walls are FINALLY down), there’s still a lot in store for Disney World. Magic Kingdom is going through a LOT of change: not only is there a big Magic Kingdom expansion in the works, but Tiana’s Bayou Adventure opens on June 28th and Country Bear Jamboree reopens with a brand new show on July 17th. But that’s not all — another big change is coming to Magic Kingdom soon.
