food IS a theme park
We’re swinging by Aloha Isle in Magic Kingdom for a pretty exciting menu update.
Aloha Isle
You might remember that we spotted the potential return of Raspberry Dole Whip on Mobile Order yesterday. Of course, today we made a beeline for Adventureland to see for ourselves and sure enough, this tasty pineapple alternative is BACK!
Although we’ve been grabbing as many Dole Whips and Mickey Pretzels (with plastic cheese, of course) as possible since we’ve been back to Disney World, there have been quite a few menu changes in the parks during the re-openings.
Magic Kingdom
While multiple menu items are available for guests to snack on again, we were SO sad to see treats like the Kakamora Float, I Lava You Float, and Peter Pan Float disappear from Disney World for the time being. And we’ve missed them tremendously!
We’re less than a week away from being able to grab a Dole Whip in the parks again, but in the meantime you’re able to pick up one at the re-opened Disney Resorts!
Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort
Although we’ve been grabbing all sorts of Fourth of July treats this weekend at Disney’s BoardWalk Inn, the Beach Club Resort, the Contemporary Resort, and more, Disney’s Polynesian Resort has brought back a fan-favorite!
Shanghai Disneyland has started to re-open its parks for guests to visit with new health and safety guidelines in place.
Dole Whip from Marketplace Snacks in Disney Springs
While everyone is enjoying their favorite snacks again, Disney is about to introduce a new line of treats and eats that will make every Dole Whip fan excited!
The Dole Whip is one POPULAR Disney snack! It may even be the most iconic Disney Parks snack of all time if we do say so ourselves! We know it’s super popular with our readers — it was voted the ultimate champion of our Snack Madness!
Dole Whip at Typhoon Lagoon
So we went ahead and made an entire page devoted to this beloved frozen treat, complete with its history and some of our favorite variations we’ve seen over the years! If you’ve ever wondered WHY Dole Whip is so popular when it comes to Disney Parks, you can read all about its history and how it has evolved over the years!
These days, we’re all looking for any way to bring the Disney magic into our everyday lives. We’ve downloaded Zoom backgrounds, tuned into our favorite Disney music, and constantly checked in to the latest live performances!

There’s no denying that one of the things we all look forward to on our Disney vacations are the special treats that remind us that we ARE in Disney World! But if you look closely, you’ll discover that Disney doesn’t even MAKE many of our favorite snacks!
There are a few quintessential Disney World experiences we got to experience for the first time in months today!
World of Disney
In addition to shopping for Disney merchandise in person, we got to snack on one of our FAVORITE park snacks.
When the Disney World parks reopen their gates, what do you think will be the first thing to fly off the shelves?
Space Mountain Minnie Ears
The Disney World parks have been closed since March 16th and they’ll remain shuttered “until further notice.” But with Disney Springs partially reopened, Disney World is taking the first step towards resuming operations.
We’ve found ourselves wondering what things Disney fans will rush to snatch up when they return to the parks — and we wanted to know what our readers think! So, we took to Instagram to ask, “What do you think will be the first thing to sell out when the parks reopen?” Let’s take a look at what our readers said!
Since Disneyland and Disney World originally opened, snacks have seen some MAJOR changes.
Mickey Ice Cream
While treats have come and gone, some of the most iconic snacks have stuck around for a while (thank goodness!). But, while you might recognize these treats as some of the best-known items in the Disney Parks, they have a bit of history you probably weren’t aware of!
Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort is almost synonymous with Disney World itself. As one of the original two hotels on property, this resort has stood the test of time and to this day remains one of the most popular resort hotels, despite the plethora of accommodations for guests to choose from.
Welcome to the Polynesian Village Resort!
