food IS a theme park
Can you believe we’re already a full month into 2021?
EPCOT
We’re taking a look back at January in Disney World. This was a newsy month and frankly, there were a lot of things we just didn’t see coming! Here are the five most unexpected things that happened in Disney World last month!
Another Disney+ release is getting closer!

Disney’s Raya and the Last Dragon is on its way! We’ve seen trailers and spotted some merchandise online, and we’re getting pretty excited. We previously shared that the film will premiere in theaters and on Disney+ on March 5th…and now you can officially pre-order it!
EPCOT is a treasure trove of dishes and drinks inspired by countries from around the world. If you’re looking to break away from burgers and chicken tenders of Disney World you can find some really stellar food.
La Hacienda d San Angel
One Pavilion positively brimming with flavorful food and drinks is the Mexico Pavilion. And that’s where we’re headed. But stop! We’re not going in the big pyramid. Nope, we’re headed waterfront to dine at this Pavilion’s SECOND, newer sit-down restaurant. For those of you interested in a little spice with a side of atmosphere, come this way!
Valentine’s Day is almost here, and we’ve been busy trying ALL the snacks!
Anandapur Ice Cream Truck
So far, we’ve eaten a Valentine’s Day cupcake, a lovey Lion King-inspired cupcake, a Valentine’s Day brownie, and more! SO MANY SWEETS!
It’s no secret that we’re big fans of Mickey-shaped food!
Mickey Waffle at Magic Kingdom
We love our Mickey-shaped treats, like Mickey waffles, Mickey cupcakes, Mickey Rice Krispy treats, and more! And, we love finding merchandise celebrating our love of Mickey snacks!
Valentine’s Day weekend is almost here!
Splitsville
And there are going to be a LOT of Valentine’s Day specials going on in Disney World, including at Disney Springs. We already know about specials at STK Orlando, a chef’s tasting dinner at Morimoto Asia, and a ton of yummy snacks. And, there’s one more Disney Springs location offering up something special for Valentine’s Day!
If you ask us, there’s no wrong way to eat a Dole Whip!
Pineapple Dole Whip
Whether you keep it classic, amp it up with a splash of pineapple juice for a Pineapple Float, or get a limited-edition concoction like a strawberry-chocolate Dole Whip swirl or the Kakamora Float with coconut Dole Whip, even when Dole Whip is only OK (like you, Watermelon Dole Whip), it’s still pretty darn great!
Welcome, foolish mortals, to the Haunted Mansion!
Haunted Mansion
No phrase fills us with so much ghoulish delight! And we love seeing all the fun Haunted Mansion stuff out there, including sippers, gargoyle statues, clothing, and more!
Disney has SO many classic snacks that we can’t pick a favorite — so we asked our readers on Instagram!
Peter Pan Float
We recently brought you a video of the best Disney snacks in 2021. But which one is the winner? Well, that’s for you to decide! Here’s the results for Round 1 of our Best Snacks of 2021 Bracket.
Okay, let’s be honest, 2020 wasn’t the best year ever for Walt Disney World.
Walt Disney World Gateway
The parks shut down for several months and the Walt Disney Company suffered financially due to the pandemic. Thousands of Cast Members lost their jobs, and when the parks did reopen, they reopened without a lot of the amenities we’ve grown to love. Even though things like fireworks, parades, and FastPasses still haven’t returned, some exciting things are already happening in 2021.
