Have you ever been personally victimized by a Disney World snack? No? Just us? Alright, well, buckle up, because we’re about to go on a (very short) JOURNEY, people. One of our FAVORITE snacks at Disney World had been the Buffalo Chicken Chips at Trilo-Bites in Animal Kingdom, so when Disney announced that Trilo-Bites would be closing with the rest of DinoLand, we were disappointed.
The old version of the Buffalo Chicken Chips
But then, Disney announced that these chips would be available at Eight Spoon Café after the closure, so of course, we were thrilled. And THEN, we got some intel that the Buffalo Chicken Chips had CHANGED, and not necessarily for the better. We investigated and found out that, sure enough, the chips were different, and we’re bringing you our full review below.
Disney has officially confirmed that the Fantasy in the Sky fireworks show will take place at Magic Kingdom on both December 30th and 31st.
Fantasy in the Sky
This special fireworks show only takes place two nights a year and is a great way to ring in the New Year at Disney World! While we were expecting Fantasy in the Sky to occur on both nights (as it typically does every year), Disney has officially updated the Magic Kingdom calendar to include the fireworks show and its times. If you’re heading to Magic Kingdom for New Year’s Eve or New Year’s Eve-Eve, here’s what you need to know!
Listen, our trips to Disney World are always magical to be sure, but has everything always gone according to plan? Not even close.
Magic Kingdom crowds
If you’re like me, I’m sure you’ve had your fair share of missed reservations, or super duper long lines, and the occasional treat that just had to dive out of our hands right to the ground. Thinking about all that, have you ever had one of those premonitions that basically spell trouble for your Disney World trip? Well, we reached out to you to get your thoughts.
Walt Disney World is called the “Most Magical Place on Earth” for a reason. Over the last 50 years, the resort has become one of the world’s most beloved vacation destinations in the world. However, that doesn’t mean planning a trip there is always easy.
It’s that time of year!
That begins when you’re trying to choose WHEN to go to Walt Disney World. Some times of year are way busier than others, and they’re not always the seasons you may think, nor are they the ones they used to be, for that matter.
ABC, ESPN, and other Disney-owned channels could be dropped for YouTube TV subscribers at the end of the month. According to CNBC, Disney and Google, the parent company of YouTube TV, have not yet reached an agreement to continue service for Disney’s programming. The current distribution agreement expires on October 30th at 11:59 PM ET. If the two companies have not reached an agreement by then, YouTube TV subscribers will see ABC and ESPN go dark.

So far, the two companies have not been able to reach terms agreeable to both. Disney recently began running public announcements on YouTube TV about the potential disruption, which would include losing access to ESPN, ABC, and marquee programming like NFL, college football, NBA, and NHL. YouTube TV has already stated that if the programming “remains unavailable for an extended period of time,” they will offer subscribers a $20 credit. With only a few days left before the previous agreement expires, we hope they can reach an agreement soon.
We will be the first ones to admit to you that we’ve easily been influenced by many of the “essentials” we see for Disney Adults. That’s who we are, so we’re not here to argue when fellow Disney fans tell us what we need!
Instant Digital Camera
Well, we might not question them, but there are some “essentials” we’ve tried out that we’ve then realized we 100% don’t need, BUT, at the same time…who are we to define the word “need?” Sometimes you don’t NEED a sweet treat, but after a rough day, or a day where everything has gone right, it kinda feels like a necessity, right? With that said, here are four products that, yeah, if you REALLY wanted to argue, you may not “need…” but also, maybe you kinda do.
We’re still struggling to believe that it’s somehow almost November (time FLIES!), and while that means there are only two more months of the year, it does mean that the holiday season is about to take over Disney World in FULL force.
