Welcome, snack-lovers and Disney die-hards! If you’re anything like me, half the reason you go to Walt Disney World is to eat your way around the parks—and if not, you’re doing Disney wrong. Forget about the rides and shows for a sec, because today, we’re talking about snacks. Not just any snacks, though. We’re talking about the best snacks in Disney World that you absolutely must try.


So grab your Minnie ears and let’s dive into this mouth-watering tour of Disney's most iconic treats, where to find them, and why they’re totally worth a spot on your Insta feed.


1. Dole Whip – Aloha Isle (Magic Kingdom)


Let’s start with the queen of Disney snacks: the Dole Whip. If you haven’t heard of it, are you even living in 2024? This frozen pineapple soft serve is the refreshing snack to cool down with after braving the Florida sun. You can grab this tropical goodness at Aloha Isle in Adventureland, Magic Kingdom, and thank me later.


Pro tip: Feeling extra boujee? Order the Dole Whip Float. It’s Dole Whip served in pineapple juice, and it’ll make you feel like you’re vacationing in the tropics... or at least pretending to while you dodge strollers.


2. Mickey Pretzel with Cheese – Various Locations


It’s a pretzel. It’s shaped like Mickey Mouse. It’s perfection. And when you dip it into that neon-yellow plastic cheese? Chef’s kiss. You can find the Mickey Pretzel at snack carts all over the parks—Epcot, Magic Kingdom, Hollywood Studios, you name it. This is a classic, and trust me, that salty, cheesy combo is worth every single penny of its overinflated price tag.


3. The Night Blossom – Pongu Pongu (Animal Kingdom)


Let’s head over to Animal Kingdom (a.k.a. the hottest place on Earth) for a drink that’s as pretty as it is tasty: the Night Blossom. Found at Pongu Pongu in Pandora – The World of Avatar, this slushy drink is a blend of limeade, apple, and pear flavors with passion fruit boba balls on top. Translation: it’s fruity, it’s refreshing, and it’s 100% Instagrammable.


Just think: sipping this colorful drink while pretending to understand Avatar lore? What a vibe.


4. Churros – Pecos Bill Tall Tale Inn and Cafe (Magic Kingdom)


Churros and Disney World go together like Mickey and Minnie—iconic and inseparable. You can find these cinnamon-sugar delights across the parks, but my personal fave is the churro cart near Pecos Bill Tall Tale Inn and Cafe in Frontierland.


Why this spot? Because nothing makes a churro taste better than imagining you’re a cowboy about to hop on Big Thunder Mountain. Plus, you get to dunk it in chocolate sauce—need I say more?


5. School Bread – Kringla Bakeri Og Kafe (Epcot)


Let’s talk about School Bread for a sec. I know it sounds like something you’d find in a cafeteria, but this Norwegian delight is so much more. Found at Kringla Bakeri Og Kafe in Epcot’s Norway Pavilion, School Bread is a sweet roll filled with custard and topped with coconut. It’s like eating a cloud, but better.


Epcot is already the park where you can eat your way around the world, so you might as well make a pit stop in Norway for this dreamy dessert.


6. Ronto Wrap – Ronto Roasters (Hollywood Studios)


Over in Galaxy’s Edge, where everything is Star Wars and everyone is weirdly OK with paying $40 for a blue milk, the Ronto Wrap is an unsung hero. Found at Ronto Roasters in Hollywood Studios, this snack features roasted pork, grilled sausage, slaw, and peppercorn sauce all wrapped up in a warm pita.


Is it technically a meal? Maybe. But in the world of Disney, where calories don’t count, we’re calling it a snack.


7. Caramel Popcorn – Karamell-Küche (Epcot)


If you have a sweet tooth, do yourself a favor and visit Karamell-Küche in the Germany Pavilion at Epcot. It’s a shop dedicated entirely to caramel. Yes, you heard me right—caramel. The standout? The caramel popcorn. It’s warm, buttery, sweet, and crunchy—basically everything you want in a snack. Just be prepared to fight off family members for the last bite.


8. Turkey Leg – Liberty Square Market (Magic Kingdom)


Okay, I couldn’t leave this one off the list. It’s ridiculous. It’s over-the-top. It’s a giant turkey leg. But honestly? It’s an experience, and you have to try it at least once. Head to Liberty Square Market in Magic Kingdom, grab one of these caveman-sized turkey legs, and prepare to feel both powerful and slightly embarrassed. But mostly powerful.


9. Num Num Cookie – Neighborhood Bakery (Hollywood Studios)


If you’re more of a cookie person, get yourself over to the Neighborhood Bakery at Hollywood Studios and grab a Num Num Cookie. This thing is massive, gooey, and stuffed with chocolate chips. Basically, it’s everything you’ve ever wanted in a cookie, but bigger and better because you’re in Disney World.


10. Cheeseburger Spring Rolls – Adventureland Cart (Magic Kingdom)


Last, but certainly not least, let me introduce you to the Cheeseburger Spring Rolls. Yes, you read that right—cheeseburger, in a spring roll. You can grab these bad boys at the Adventureland Spring Roll Cart near the entrance to Adventureland in Magic Kingdom. They’re crunchy, savory, cheesy, and totally addictive. Also, portable—perfect for snacking on while you hustle over to the next ride.


Final Thoughts: Snack Your Way Through Disney World!


So there you have it—my totally unbiased, very expert list of the best snacks in Disney World. Whether you're a churro fanatic, a Dole Whip devotee, or just someone who loves a good snack break between rides, there's something magical waiting for you in every corner of the parks. And remember, when in doubt, order the Mickey-shaped option. Always.


Now go forth and snack like there’s no tomorrow—because in Disney World, calories definitely don’t count.
