food IS a theme park
If you’re heading to Disney World anytime soon, you probably know that the sheer amount of dining options can be somewhat overwhelming.
The hacked “float”
However, there are certain tips you can keep in mind to make the best of your dining experience.
In the 70+ years since Disneyland opened, Disney has built some truly iconic theme park attractions. Rides like Pirates of the Caribbean, The Haunted Mansion, and “it’s a small world” have become culturally ubiquitous. However, there’s perhaps no more pop-culturally iconic Disney attraction than Space Mountain.

Everything from the coaster’s exterior to its theme is known well beyond the bubble of Disney’s fans, particularly because the ride maintains an air of mystery since it takes place entirely in the dark. However, we’re here to shed some light on this 50+ year-old favorite.
We’re dedicated festival-goers in Disney World, which means we’re there on opening day for each EPCOT festival.
Welcome to the festival!
Recently, we kicked off the 2026 EPCOT International Flower & Garden Festival with our whole team. We ate at EVERY food booth, trying dozens of new items and many returning favorites, and all in all, we spent $767.80 just to dine around the park. Along the way, we learned some important things!
Tickets? Check. Park bag? Check. A completely reasonable level of Disney excitement that definitely does not involve waking up at 3AM three days before your trip? Sure. Let’s go with that.
What to Pack?!
At this point, you probably feel pretty prepared for your Disney World vacation. You’ve got your outfits planned, your park days mapped out, and at least one person in your group has already said, “We’ll just buy it there if we forget it,” with the confidence of someone who has never paid theme park prices for sunscreen.
And that, dear reader, is where the trouble begins.

Now, the playful friends from the Glades are making their way to the Disneyland Resort. That’s right, Hoppers is coming to Disney California Adventure as Mabel’s Seek & Find Activity at the Redwood Creek Challenge Trail.
