food IS a theme park
We recently told about the ketchup crisis happening around the US.
We’ll take ALL the ketchup, please!
And since hearing about it, we have been seeing how it has impacted Disney World. Well, today we have some good news for all of our ketchup fans out there!
Disney World is CONSTANTLY changing; at least it feels that way!
EPCOT
That’s why we spend so much time in the theme parks bringing you all of the latest updates. Today, we’ve got an update from EPCOT on everything NEW in food, construction, and merchandise!
We spend a LOT of time in The Most Magical Place on Earth.
Hey there Disney fans!
It’s so that we can bring YOU all of the latest news from Disney World! Of course, we’ve visited Magic Kingdom a few times this week and now we’re bringing you the latest in construction, and merchandise!
Love ice cream? Love Minnie Mouse? Okay, great, then you’ve GOT to see what we found today in Magic Kingdom!
WHAT. A. VIEW.
A few great Disney snacks have been reappearing recently. Not too long ago, the spring roll cart in Magic Kingdom reopened with a secret menu item, and we found that the chocolate Mickey waffle sundaes in that cool collectible bowl were BACK at BoardWalk Bakery. But today we found that an ice cream treat in a VERY special Minnie Mouse theme is BACK in Magic Kingdom. Anyone up for a little kitchen sink action?!
Disney’s a fun place to be, but there are a few unspoken rules to keep in mind.
Magic Kingdom
Some of ’em will actually really help you out on your vacation — they’re like little insider tidbits! But others are about…you know…common courtesy. And in the past, we’ve spotted a great example of what NOT to do while at Disney World.
There are some SERIOUSLY exciting attractions coming to EPCOT.

We can’t wait for when Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure opens on October 1st in EPCOT’s France Pavilion expansion, but we’re ALSO pretty excited for the Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind omnicoaster that’s currently under construction. Now, it seems a MAJOR outdoor theming element might appear in EPCOT soon!
We recently told you all about some new Disney World merch!
So much cool stuff!
We’ve seen a few examples of Disney’s mission to become more eco-friendly poppin’ up in the parks, from cool new trash cans to compostable plastic cheese (!!) containers. And now, Disney has a few more reusable pieces of merchandise that you can use around the parks and at home! The line is called the Play, Drink, Repeat and the collection is jam-packed with reusable goodies. So, of course, we had to try some of them out.
Tokyo Disneysea is undergoing a HUGE change right now, with a brand new port, Fantasy Springs!

Set to open in 2023, this largest-ever port will have THREE new areas, each dedicated to a fan-favorite film: Frozen, Tangled, and Peter Pan!
Sure, it’s always nice to see Disney merchandise featuring Mickey Mouse, but that guy is kind of on EVERYTHING!
Mickey Tee
But we love it when we see merchandise around the parks that features more obscure characters, like this bag that features Rajah, Scuttle, Meeko, Flounder, and Lumiere!
It’s been over one year, but today, tickets for the reopening of Disneyland and Disney California Adventure went on sale!
Disneyland
As we probably should have expected, demand for these tickets is HIGH, leading to long wait times in a virtual queue. Earlier today, we even wondered: WHO is getting through on Disneyland’s website?!
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
