food IS a theme park
Let’s be honest, Disney World is pretty magical!
EPCOT
But let’s be real, even in the Most Magical Place on Earth, there are some behaviors that will cause you to raise an eyebrow and clutch your Dole Whip a bit tighter, and that’s what we’re here to talk about. Let’s go over some of the things that people do at Disney that are, well, shall we say a bit on the creepy side.

A new virtual queue is DEBUTING at Magic Kingdom.
Tiana!
We’ve known for a while now that Tiana’s Bayou Adventure would feature a virtual queue, but it feels different now that it’s FINALLY HERE. If you’re planning on riding this new Magic Kingdom attraction soon (!!!), we’ve got you covered on how the virtual queue works and what you need to know before riding. [Read more…]
We’ve already eaten a LOT of brand-new Disney Food so far this year, and you’re in the right place if you want to figure out the best of the best so far in 2024! Got your notepad ready? Here we go!
Banh Mi Burger
We may still be in the first half of 2024, but we’ve already tried so many EPIC eats throughout the Disney World scene. These savory, sweet, and downright UNIQUE options have stood out to us so much, in fact, that we figure you’d wanna add them to YOUR tasting itinerary for your upcoming vacation, as well! (That way, we can all bond over these tasty vacay foods together.) [Read more…]
It’s no secret that Disney has been in a years-long political conflict with Florida Governor Ron DeSantis that started as a disagreement, eventually evolving into a legal battle between the two over Disney’s “special district” political privileges.
Cinderella Castle
DeSantis took control of the former Reedy Creek Improvement District in early 2023, turning it into the Central Florida Tourism Oversight District (CFTOD). Lately, though, the two parties have started to get along, with news of a settlement gave hope that the situation was turning a corner. Now, we have an update.
EPCOT has had a busy week with the grand opening of CommuniCore Hall and Plaza, and the debut of a new show, ¡Celebración Encanto! While there have been mixed feelings about the new festival space, this opening does mark the completion of the years-long EPCOT transformation.
EPCOT has had a lot of changes recently
Amidst the grand opening of CommuniCore Hall and Plaza, EPCOT also opened up a refurbished seating area nearby, and we were surprised by some items we spotted there.
Food connoisseurs, prepare for boarding!
The Norwegian Gem
A brand-new themed cruise is setting sail from Miami to Cozumel next May, and the whole trip sounds like a food-lovers delight.
There are many perks to grabbing a Disney gift card before your vacation.
Disney Gift Cards at Target
You can buy them to use on almost anything on Disney property, including food, snacks, merchandise, and more! Not only is it a great way for adults to budget how many snacks they’re buying or their souvenirs, but you can also load a certain amount and give it to your kids for their vacation budget! It’s a great way to give them some independence while also making sure you’re not breaking the bank. But did you know there’s a way you can SAVE on your Disney gift cards?
NEW attractions have finally opened in EPCOT! The transformation is finally complete! The new festival areas are officially open, and you can find a new quick-service restaurant, some relaxing seating, and a new meet-and-greet inside the new building.
CommuniCore Hall
Hopefully, we’ll see even more get added to the spaces as we get closer to the Food & Wine Festival. Disney mentioned that demonstrations, kitchens, concerts, and more would be available in these areas during the festivals. As of now though, there is a NEW Encanto stage show that you can watch, “¡Celebración Encanto!” This is an outdoor stage show, which may raise some concern since it rains A LOT in Florida. But we recently found out what happens when it does rain during this show!
Okay, so who is afraid to watch any new TV shows at all for fear they’ll get canceled quickly?

It happens ALL the time, and it makes it really hard to commit to a show without knowing its final fate. For example, Disney+ canceled The Muppets Mayhem recently (and we’re still sad about it). ABC recently announced that season 7 would be the last for The Good Doctor. American Born Chinese and The Secrets of Sulphur Springs, two original Disney+ shows, also got canceled. Now, Amazon has just announced the end of a POPULAR show.
We have GREAT news for all of you out there who have been looking for a new pair of ears!
Ears!!
And if you’re trying to avoid buying new ears, proceed with caution because these are seriously tempting (tempting enough that we already bought them in the parks…oops). We previously saw these new Baublebar ears in Disney World, but now you can officially grab them online, too!
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
