food IS a theme park
There’s been a very small, yet sweet change at Magic Kingdom!
Cinderella Castle
We can’t lie, we’ve been checking in at Magic Kingdom to see if any changes have been made to the guide map with all the new things on the horizon. We may not have seen anything we’ve been wanting to see, but we did notice a very tiny change.
Disney didn’t announce this closure, but it’s official.
TRON Identity Program
Some Disney changes come with big headlines. Others happen quietly, almost overnight. You’d think we’d be used to seeing Disney World close stores and restaurants from one day to the next by now (looking at you, Disney Springs). However, when we stepped inside one popular store at Magic Kingdom, we noticed a jarring change that seemed to hint that another permanent closure had struck a Disney World exclusive experience.
It’s no secret that the DFB team is cheese-obsessed. In fact, we often get into extensive discourses over the beloved dairy product!
ALDI
Whether we’re talking about Disney’s plastic cheese or losing our minds over the latest mac & cheese, the DFB team is always ready to talk cheese. So when we were discussing the best cheeses at Aldi, you’d best believe the conversation got HIGHLY opinionated!
Magic Kingdom has a lot going on right now. Big Thunder Mountain is still undergoing refurbishment, and the park’s expansion is well underway.
Buzz Lightyear’s Space Ranger Spin
Disney is also busy working away at a major update on Buzz Lightyear’s Space Ranger Spin, which seems to be progressing nicely. We now have an update on what changes to expect next, thanks to a new permit that was filed by Disney.
Disney’s newest announcements are all about getting more out of your vacation.

Instead of focusing on just one deal, Disney released a full suite of summer updates designed to add flexibility, value, and fun to Disney World trips in 2026. Altogether, these changes offer more ways to save, more ways to play, and more reasons to plan ahead!
When there are 52 weeks in a year, it can be hard to figure out when’s the best time to go to Disney World. We know the busy times like Christmas or spring break, but what about the times that aren’t flooded with people?
Magic Kingdom
As Disney World experts, we pulled some of our favorite times of the year to visit Disney World, where we think the crowds are a little calmer than usual.
You’d THINK that a skip-the-ride-line option would ALWAYS be valuable in Disney World…
Lightning Lane entrance
But when it comes to Lightning Lanes, you’re gonna want to avoid THESE pricey pitfalls… or ELSE.
Disney World has no shortage of iconic restaurants, but some seriously solid steaks keep flying under the radar.
Have a bite!
Between chasing reservations, planning park days, and trying to remember where you ate on your last trip, it’s easy to forget about some truly great meals. Disney World actually has several steak options that don’t get nearly enough love, and a few aren’t even traditional steakhouses. Let’s talk about nine spots you should absolutely consider adding back onto your list.
Something new is coming to Disneyland from a galaxy far far away!
Galaxy’s Edge
Star Wars Galaxy’s Edge at Disneyland has tons of treats, drinks, and souvenirs to offer Star Wars fans from all over. Now, Galaxy’s Edge is adding a new drink to its unique offerings, and we’re really curious as to how it’s going to taste!
We’ve got fantastic news for those who love Toy Story Land but are tired of seeing those walls up!
Spring Rolls have arrived!
For a while now, we’ve known about the new snack stand coming to the land, and we’ve been stoked! However, it’s also felt like the walls have been up forever, so we’re THRILLED to share that Disney has finally OPENED this new snack spot!
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
