food IS a theme park
In January of this year, Disney World and Disneyland introduced park-specific reusable shopping bags as part of their many efforts to eliminate single-use plastics. We love that the designs on the bags are specific to the parks where they’re purchased!
Reusable Shopping Bags
But if you love these merchandise bags like we do, we have a bit of not-so-great news to share. The totes we saw in Magic Kingdom’s Main Street Confectionery have all increased in price by a dollar.
We’ve spotted the Epcot, Animal Kingdom, Hollywood Studios, and Resort Hotel versions of the new reusable shopping bags that are popping up in each park and resort. Now we’ve found Magic Kingdom’s reusable shopping bags!

The bags are a part of Disney’s efforts to reduce the use of single use plastic products in the parks — including shopping bags and straws.
We went to the Animal Kingdom looking for animals, and instead found aliens and yetis! But, don’t worry, they are super cute!
Alien Straw Clips
This little alien is at The Feeding Ground on a straw clip just waiting for you to choose him! Check out these newest straw clips here! They are also found at Pizza Planet in Disneyland!
Our weekly visit to Epcot includes a bunch of construction updates — including seeing part of the track for the new Guardians of the Galaxy ride!
Hello from Epcot — and the Guardians of the Galaxy Ride!
The Guardians of the Galaxy ride isn’t the only thing going on Epcot right now, there’s also the addition of the Ratatouille Ride in the France Pavilion, TWO brand new restaurants, prep work for the new nighttime show, and more must-have merchandise!
As we check out the new park-specific reusable bags which have arrived at merchandise locations in both Disneyland and Walt Disney World, today we’re taking a look at the Epcot reusable bag.

Hello from Hollywood Studios! There’s a lot coming to this park between Star Wars: Galaxy Edge, a Lightning McQueen attraction, the first Mickey and Minnie focused attraction in Disney World, and the Skyliner Gondola system! See what we found in addition to all of these changes this week.
Look who is back! The Celebrate Mickey Birthday Plush!
Look who we spotted — Mickey is all decked out in his birthday best for this 90th Birthday Celebration Plush. We saw him over his birthday weekend in November, then he “disappeared”. Now we’ve spotted him back in stock in Hollywood Studios and Disney Springs! Welcome back Mickey!
We have been spotting park-specific reusable bags at both Disneyland Resort and in Disney World. Yesterday, we shared a look at the new reusable bags in Disney’s Hollywood Studios, and today — thanks to DFB Instagram friend @JasonD30 — we are checking out the new bag design for Disney World’s Animal Kingdom.

Similar to the other reusable bags we’ve seen so far, the design reflects park-specific icons. For Animal Kingdom these include Expedition Everest, banshees in Pandora, and a rhino in the savanna of Kilamanjaro Safaris. Plus Mickey 🙂 ! And, of course, the Tree of Life as seen above. [Read more…]
We just shared photos of the reusable bags which have arrived in both Disneyland and Disney California Adventure in Disneyland Resort. And today we’re taking a look at the bags which have arrived in Walt Disney World, specifically for Disney’s Hollywood Studios.
