food IS a theme park
Happy New Year, everyone! January is the time for new beginnings, so what better way to kick off the year than with some exciting FOOD news?! Back in October, Disney World celebrated its 50th Anniversary. The occasion called for a TON of new foods and treats, like the Sparkling Sunshine drink and The Mickey Mouse Dome Cake. But the fun doesn’t stop there!
New year, new treats!
Recently, Disney teased some new 50th Anniversary snacks on Instagram that we HAVE to talk about!
It’s no secret that Disney World has been dropping a LOT of merchandise recently.
Happy Anniversary, Minnie!
We found the newest 50th Anniversary popcorn bucket during a 🍿pop🍿 into the Magic Kingdom, and then we also saw it in Disney’s Animal Kingdom and Disney’s Hollywood Studios. We found his Minnie back on the 50th anniversary in sipper cup form but this Mickey wasn’t ready for the big day. Now he’s finally arrived! Okay, enough suspense building. Time for the big reveal!
We’re eating our way around Disney World this week as a whopping 150 new food and drink items arrive just in time for the official start of the 50th Anniversary Celebration!
The Plaza Restaurant
One of the restaurants that got a LOT of love and attention from Disney World when it comes to special 50th Anniversary treats is The Plaza Restaurant in Magic Kingdom. After all, what we know today as The Plaza Restaurant was an opening day dining spot at Disney World back in 1971, so it totally should get its own special recognition!
