food IS a theme park
Recently, we shared with you over 50 Disney World upgrades that cost less than $50 and that got us thinking…
Disney World
…what about some upgrades you can find for even CHEAPER?
Oh, Disney snacks and drinks, how we miss you!!
Mickey Pretzel
Since the parks have been closed, we’ve been having some MAJOR withdrawal from all the amazing restaurants in Disney World. From simple Mickey Pretzels at the food carts to the HUGE Kitchen Sink at Beaches and Cream, Disney hands-down has some of the best treats to indulge in when you’re at the parks.
Buuut, that doesn’t mean they’re all hits! There are still snack and drink flops, even in the Most Magical Place on Earth.
Any trip to Disney World is a mixed bag of emotions from the joy you feel when you begin planning to the sadness you feel when you board your plane to go home.

You really feel the FULL spectrum of emotions throughout your entire trip, so we thought we would rank them! No one asked us to, BUT WE’RE DOING IT ANYWAY. We’re starting from the absolute BEST feelings in the (Disney) world to the downright strangest!
There’s a LOT to accomplish in a single day at Disney World! Between all the rides to ride, shows to see, and characters to meet, FastPass+ is an excellent way to do it all.

With park crowds being relatively low in the morning, it may be optimal for you to make FastPass+ reservations in the late morning and early afternoon. This gives you the chance to ride some prime attractions in the morning before the lines build up, AND leaves the possibility to score MORE FastPasses later in the day.
But as you’re planning your FastPass selections, you may find that this strategy leaves little time for lunch. And keeping your energy up is critical to check all those boxes off your “to do” list!

With that in mind, we have six lunch suggestions for you to consider. These lunches will get you to your FastPasses on time, while still giving you a delicious meal. We cover all four parks in this list, so let’s jump right in!
Just when we think we have tried everything in Disney World, we stumble upon brand NEW experiences.

From going underground to trips on the high seas, we’ve got some fun things you may not know you can experience at Disney World! So will you be adding theses unique experiences to your next Disney World vacay?
Oh, Disney World — you give us SO MANY delicious snacks. There are Dole Whips, Mickey Pretzels, Corn Dog Nuggets, and more. How could we possibly choose a favorite? (Oh wait…I guess we already did!)
We love you, Dole Whip

Here at DFB, Disney food might just be our favorite thing at the parks! There are so many options it can be hard to choose our favorites — and Disney keeps making it even WORSE by adding new treats and snacks each time we visit! 😉

We’ve seen some of these pop up in certain restaurants briefly or for special events, but we’re ready for these foods to take the parks by storm!
