food IS a theme park
Okay, admit it — you’ve got an ENTIRE collection of Disney cups and mugs, don’t you?
You can never have too many Disney mugs
There’s no SHAME in it either — hey, at least you’re buying stuff you can use, right? Plus, how nice is it to enjoy that morning cup of coffee with a mug that makes you smile? We also know you LOVE those Starbucks cups, too, and we’re about to tell you why you might want to buy even MORE.
We’ve seen a LOT of changes for Genie+ since it was first introduced in 2021.
Genie+ is changing…AGAIN this week.
We’ve seen it all: from surge pricing to new rides getting added to the feature, it’s been tricky staying on top of everything that HAS changed with Genie+. We recently got word that Genie+ was going to have some MASSIVE changes soon, and well, the time has come to remind you of those changes.
We spend our days eating our way around Disney World — seriously, it’s a tough job, but someone’s got to do it!
4th of July cupcakes in Magic Kingdom
We’re always hunting down all those new foods, like two MAC ‘n CHEESES (y’all know how we feel about cheese), some new burgers, a questionable-looking drink, and more. We also keep an eye on Disney World restaurant menus to catch any new changes, and we want to keep you updated on when that happens.
Have you ever spotted a celebrity in Disney World?
Haunted Mansion at Disneyland
Now, we’re not talking about Mickey and Minnie (and well, they ARE HUGE celebrities, right?). We know a lot of celebrities who LOVE Disney and many visit the parks often. Neil Patrick Harris has come to EPCOT so much that he has his own table at a bar there. We even spotted Michael Jordan once. However, celebs go to Disneyland ALL the time, but today, THREE turned up ALL AT ONCE.
We get it — restaurant menus change in Disney World. We even understand why — it’s nice to change things up to give visitors NEW snacks and foods to get excited about.
The Trio
But sometimes that means that some of our favorite snacks have to go away forever. We’re not always sad to see something go (we were FINE when the BIZARRE Squid’s Revenge drink disappeared). Sometimes, though, Disney decides to get rid of some of our favorite snacks, and then we’re just sad.
It’s no secret that we see menu changes at Disney World ALL the time.
Mexico
Sometimes, some of our favorite snacks end up leaving menus. Sometimes new food shows up on menus. Sometimes, though, we see price increases. However, this week, we saw price increases for EVERY dining spot in one World Showcase Pavilion in EPCOT.
A LOT has happened in the Walt Disney Company over the last few years.

In 2021, after Bob Iger left his position as the company’s CEO and was replaced by Bob Chapek, several executives also stepped down. Of course, we now know that Iger ended up RETURNING as CEO of The Walt Disney Company, but one of those executives went on to get a new gig…at TikTok.
There’s a reason we tell you not to skip out on visiting Disney Springs during your Disney World trip.
Disney Springs
Disney Springs has some of the BEST food on Disney World property (at least in our humble opinion) that includes some of our favorite restaurants like Wine Bar George and Homecomin.’ However, Homecomin’ has been missing one of its BEST desserts. Now, though, that dessert IS BACK.
It’s no secret that things don’t always work the way they’re supposed to in Disney World.
Tree of Life in Animal Kingdom
We’ve seen rides have animatronics removed when they didn’t just work right. We’ve seen animatronics do some weird things while on rides. Sometimes rides even close because it’s having some technical difficulties (Rise of the Resistance, we’re looking at you). However, what happens when you’re on Kilimanjaro Safaris in Disney’s Animal Kingdom and the ride breaks down while you’re on the savannah? Well, now we know!
UPDATED December 17, 2024
A LOT has changed in Disney World in the past few years, but here’s the thing — even MORE changes are on the way.
