food IS a theme park
Disney World hotel pools are some of the amenities guests love most about staying on property.

Often they’re themed immaculately to match the rest of the resort, and there’s plenty of space for everyone to enjoy the water. However, there’s one issue with the pools that is a little awkward, so no one really wants to discuss it…which means we’re about to talk about it in full detail, so buckle up!

If you’ve been here a while, then you know that we’re absolutely OBSESSED with plastic cheese here at DFB.
Plastic cheeeeese
If you don’t know about plastic cheese, allow me to enlighten you! It’s a cheese sauce you can find in many places around Disney World that Cast Members will serve you in a little open-top plastic cup, usually for a $1 upcharge. We especially love to dip our Casey’s Corner corn dog nuggets and french fries in it! And if you’re as hooked on plastic cheese as we are, then there’s another meal we HAVE to tell you about!
We love celebrating alongside Disney when one of our favorite characters has a birthday.
Who else loves a birthday celebration?
Donald Duck first appeared on-screen nearly 90 (!!!) years ago, on June 9th, 1934. Disney is partnering with a local cafe in Japan and is celebrating in a BIG way this year. OH MY CAFE — a popup cafe in Shinjuku that licenses to use Disney characters — is hosting a limited-time experience in celebration of Donald’s 90th birthday. Here’s what you need to know!
When it comes to food news, we don’t discriminate.
McDonald’s
And, here at DFB, we LOVE McDonald’s. Whether it’s the nostalgia that reminds us of childhood or whatever they put into those french fries that keep us coming back for more, we can’t seem to get enough. So, when NEW Happy Meal Toys roll out that combine our love of McDonald’s and Disney, well, that’s a reason to celebrate!
April is winding down in Disney World and you know that soon, it’s GONNA’ BE MAY (sorry, couldn’t resist).
Curry Chickpea Salad
It’s been a busy week, though. We got the dates for the EPCOT Food & Wine Festival and it looks like the festival is going back to an August start, something we haven’t seen since 2019. While we wait for menus to be released for the festival, though, we’re checking out new plant-based burgers, Spiked Coffee, and more. We’re also keeping an eye out for menu changes at Disney World restaurants.
There are quite a few times when you’ll want to avoid Disney World if you’re averse to crowds!
We LOVE it when the parks are this chill!
There are some obvious answers, including major holidays like Christmas and Thanksgiving, as well as holiday weekends, Spring Break season, and the summer. But on top of that, Disney World can get busy with various rogue events, like runDisney races or cheerleading competitions. And now, we’ve got a warning about an upcoming weekend!
When you are in the mood for some New Orleans vibes, there is no better place to go than Disney’s Port Orleans Resort — French Quarter. There are lots of fun decorations, and of course BEIGNETS!

However, before we all get too excited, we aren’t headed to get beignets. In fact, where we are going, they don’t even serve beignets. GASP!
Now is the perfect time to plan a trip to Disney’s Hollywood Studios!
Disney’s Hollywood Studios
The park is about to celebrate its 35th anniversary, an exclusive merchandise event is coming soon, and we’ve recently discovered some new favorite eats, too. But, while you’re doing your planning, you might want to make sure you’re not visiting Hollywood Studios on this particular date.
Disney has made a big push in recent years to bring the “at home” experience and the “in park” experience together.

We’ve seen talks of a “metaverse” (though you won’t catch CEO Bob Iger using that word anytime soon) and have even seen Disney integrate a shopping feature into Disney+. And now, this new update on Disney+ is bringing the theme parks into your living room in a way we’ve never seen before!
