The marg is now available in a new location! So…it might be a little easier to snag.
It’s a new day which means there’s more snacking to do in Disney World!
Westward Ho in Magic Kingdom
Earlier today we reunited with one of our favorite snacks in Magic Kingdom, the Pepper Jack Pretzel (!!), and, if that wasn’t enough excitement for the day, we also got to stop by a reopened snack kiosk for more goodies — Westward Ho! Now, this snack kiosk has been open on and off since last year serving up another one of our favorites — corn dog nuggets — but not anymore! Today the location is open with a NEW menu!
As you may know, we’re halfway to the holidays! Not too long from now, the Disney parks will be covered in (fake) snow and ornaments will be everywhere!

One of Disney’s Animal Kingdom seasonal snack Kiosks, The Smiling Crocodile, is back! This spot is known for wacky treats like the delicious Pulled Pork Jelly Doughnuts and the surface-of-the-sun hot Pulled Pork Tamales, and serves up Mexican-inspired cuisine!
The Smiling Crocodile
For the past year, this snack spot has been closed, but on July 11th it reopened with an updated menu! So, we stopped by to check it out!
The Smiling Crocodile is a seasonal kiosk at Disney’s Animal Kingdom that served up crazy treats like the Pulled Pork Jelly Doughnut in the past! This is a good spot to get something a little different than the usual Animal Kingdom eats, but we’ve had some mixed feelings about some of their dishes (like those tamales that lit our mouths on fire!).
Smiling Crocodile
However, we’re excited to see that the Smiling Crocodile is back with a new menu! The restaurant reopened on July 11th, so of course, we had to go check it out!
