food IS a theme park
Have you wished a happy birthday to EPCOT yet?
EPCOT
Along with all the new merchandise, food, and construction, EPCOT just turned 40 years old! We’re in the parks every day reporting all the news and now we’re here with what’s new from EPCOT.
Disney knows that we LOVE ears, and we guess that’s why new pairs get released almost EVERY day.
So many ears!
It’s hard to keep up with all the new designs, but most recently we’ve seen some gorgeous Princess Tiana Ears, some super colorful Coco Ears, some fall corduroy ears, and some awesome glow-in-the-dark Oogie Boogie Ears. Now we’re back with ANOTHER pair of new ears, but these are just for select guests only!
EPCOT just celebrated its 40th anniversary in Disney World and there were a bunch of fun festivities!
EPCOT just turned 40!
We saw new snacks, special performances, photo ops, and a bunch of cool merchandise. The merchandise was so cool that people were lined up in the park to grab it for HOURS. But, there were also several items available online, so let’s take a look at what EPCOT 40th Anniversary merchandise is still available over on shopDisney!
How do we celebrate fall? By eating (and drinking) fall treats, of course!
Pumpkin time!
Lucky for us, Disney World has plenty of fall treats for us to dig into. Pumpkin Spice Cold Brews, Pumpkin Spice Macaron Ice Cream Sandwiches, Pumpkin Spice Floats — okay…maybe we’re a little obsessed with pumpkin. But today we’re switching over to another fall flavor, courtesy of the new treat at Connections Cafe!
It’s October and you know what that means — Halloween!
Mickey, WE LOVE YA
Of course, October in Disney World will be full of spooky celebrations — but that’s not all! Some character dining locations are returning to normal, new offerings are hitting the parks, and another anniversary event is taking place. So, if you’re visiting the resort this month, take a look at the 5 things that will be different in Disney World in October.
EPCOT is currently undergoing a HUGE transformation.
EPCOT construction
Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind was one step in the process, but we’re keeping a close eye on the Journey of Water — Inspired by Moana construction and the progress on the PLAY! Pavilion. But there’s still so much unknown about what’s to come for this park, and we didn’t get many updates at the recent D23 Expo. However, it looks like an upcoming event next month will finally bring us more answers.
There are good snacks in Disney World, and then there are GOOOOD snacks.
Caramel Popcorn…YUM!
Some treats we just love more than others, like a classic Mickey bar, the cheeseburger spring rolls, or the Carrot Cake Cookie. One of our beloved snacks is the Caramel Popcorn at Karamell Kuche in EPCOT, and now there’s a way to upgrade that snack to the next level!
When we say “tacos in Disney World,” we’re willing to bet that most people think of the same place — the Mexico pavilion in EPCOT’s World Showcase! It’s true that you can find some amazing tacos over there, but we’re looking in a DIFFERENT spot for today’s lunch.

Should you venture off the beaten path or stick to what you know when it comes to tacos in EPCOT? We’re about to find out — come along with us to try NEW fish tacos at Sunshine Seasons.
EPCOT’s 40th anniversary was on October 1st, but the celebrations aren’t over yet!
EPCOT just turned 40!
We saw a bunch of fun food in EPCOT, as well as a special show and more for the celebration. We’ve also seen a lot of new merchandise for the occasion, which created a HUGE line over the weekend of people trying to snag some exclusive items. But, some of the items weren’t available in time for the anniversary, and are just now being put on the shelves. And, one of these items you have to see to believe!
Is it just us or is 2022 going by REALLY really fast??
Oogie Boogie Nachos
Somehow it’s already October, and now we’re reflecting on all the tasty (and not-so-tasty) Disney World foods we ate in September.
