food IS a theme park
Here at DFB we love to try all sorts of eats, treats, and drinks from all over the place — and that includes galaxies far far away!
Galaxy’s Edge
We recently went to Star Wars Galaxy’s Edge in Disneyland, and a certain drink caught our eye. There were literally cookies in this coffee drink — “a surprise to be sure, but a welcome one.” Come with us to try it out!
Okay, Disneyland is knocking it OUT of the park with its Season of the Force, which celebrates all things Star Wars.
Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge in Disneyland
This year, Disney has dropped some pretty EPIC food from a galaxy far, far away, but we’ve also seen some pretty epic souvenirs, too. That includes the Death Star Popcorn Bucket (we seriously can’t get over it), as well as a brand new souvenir that we’re pretty sure is going to get more than a “luke warm” reception (deep dive Star Wars joke reference there). So, let’s take a look!
Okay, where are our Disney World popcorn bucket collectors?
Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge
We know, we know, collecting popcorn buckets is a THING, and well, we get it — Disney releases some pretty cool ones. That Elf Mickey Popcorn Bucket from Christmas? That thing was FIRE. The new Figment Popcorn Bucket coming to the EPCOT Festival of the Arts? WE NEED IT. Well, there’s one popular Disney World popcorn bucket that is actually BACK in Disney World — so if you didn’t get it the first time around, here’s your chance.
Disney World has so many great options for snacks and meals!
Cinderella Castle
As we say, food is a theme park! From beloved dining spots like ‘Ohana and favorite snacks like corn dog nuggets with plastic cheese from Casey’s Corner, many Disney World foodies can get behind loving these iconic places to eat, but there are some meals that fans can’t stop fighting about. Some snacks and meals are not everyone’s cup of tea, and Disney World has some questionable items on some of their menus.
So if you had to ask us which is better: Disney World’s Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge or Disneyland’s Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge, our answer might surprise you.
Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge at Disneyland
Now, granted, we’re totally only thinking about food when comparing the two because that’s what we LIVE for. Although both lands have the same counter service restaurants and snacks like the Ronto Wrap and Blue Milk, Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge on the West Coast has MORE Star Wars treats — and we’ll be honest here, they usually ROCK. So yeah, those of us in Florida are a little jealous. Well, we just tried three one-day-only treats in Disneyland, and, yep, we’re still jealous.
One of the most important parts of your Disney World trip (in our opinion) is what you choose to eat! There are lots of great options for snacks and meals in the parks, but there are also some less-than-stellar eats to watch out for.

Some drinks in Disney World have reached legendary status.
Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge
We’re not even talking about boozy drinks either. We’re talking about Pumpkin Spice Lattes at Starbucks, but also things like Blue Milk and Cold Brew Black Caf in Disney World. Well, the latter recently had a bit of a makeover, and, although it wasn’t BAD, it wasn’t as iconic as the ORIGINAL version of the drink. Now, though, the original version of the Cold Brew Black Caf is BACK, baby.
We are no strangers to food shortages in Disney World.
Kat Saka’s Kettle
Over the past few years, we’ve faced food shortages. First, a noodle shortage temporarily took away our favorite ‘Ohana noodles. Then there was a ketchup shortage. We’ve also lived through a Skittles issue. Well, we just discovered what could be another food shortage in Disney World — and it’s affected our favorite coffee.
Dining in Disney World can certainly be done on a whim. And we do love to grab a new treat when we see one!
50’s Prime Time Cafe
However, when we have a full day planned, we like to have the best eats in mind before we get to a Walt Disney World theme park. After all, it’s important to spend our dining budget on the best Disney food. That’s why we researched all the food that the restaurants in Disney’s Hollywood Studios have to offer so that you aren’t led astray!
If you like to visit a galaxy far, far away…we’ve got a Disney World update for you!
Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge
This update comes from Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge in Disney’s Hollywood Studios, where a NEW popcorn bucket has just arrived. Now, we’ve previously seen this popcorn bucket in Disneyland, but it’s finally made its way to Disney World; it just took a few months and a whole lot of patience! Whew!
