During the event, you’ll get to hear from Disney executives all about projects that are in the works, get exclusive Disney merchandise, and much MUCH more. D23 Expo is completely sold out for 2022 though, so how can YOU get in on the fun? Well, some panels will be live-streamed, and D23 just announced some big details for those watching from home. D23 has announced that they will be live streaming the Disney & Marvel GAMES SHOWCASE to fans around the world. Mark your calendars for September 9th at 1PM PT (4PM ET) so you don’t miss a second of the action. The GAMES SHOWCASE will be hosted by Blessing Adeoye Jr. from Kinda Funny. During the showcase, you’ll get a peek at new content coming from Disney & Pixar Games, Marvel Games, Lucasfilm Games, and 20th Century Games. ©D23 But it’s not just new announcements you’ll get to hear. You’ll also get new reveals about titles you may have already heard about, including Disney Dreamlight Valley, Marvel’s Midnight Suns, and LEGO® Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga.

Spirit Jerseys There have certainly been a lot of them haven’t there? Recently we’ve seen a retro-looking Disney World 50th Anniversary spirit jersey, a spirit jersey all about Disney villains, and even a Haunted Mansion spirit jersey, too! Now, there’s a new spirit jersey that has made its way to Disney World and online, and it’s celebrating a popular Pixar movie. Introducing the Up Spirit Jersey. This jersey is seriously beautiful with an image of a sunset over Paradise Falls (which fans of the movie will remember as the place Carl Fredricksen was hoping to float his house to). The front of the spirit jersey has a purple sky with the silhouette of Carl’s house and the Up logo in the balloons making the house float. ‘Up’ spirit jersey The back of the spirit jersey says “Paradise Falls” and has the same sunset — or it could be sunrise — scene. You can even see Kevin towards the bottom of the jersey (no sign of her babies, though).

If you think you’ve experienced all that the 2022 EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival has to offer…you’d be wrong. (Proceed with caution: cheesy goodness lies ahead.) Mac & Eats Yes, the festival has been underway for quite some time now, but some booths were fashionably late to the party. So, it’s time for us to continue our food adventure by digging into the Mac & Eats Booth! Are there any must-eats here? Let’s chew on that. Menu The Mac & Eats booth, which was new in 2021, is back again this year! At the Mac & Eats Booth, you’ll find a few different items — of the Mac & Cheese variety, of course. You may notice a few returners, like the Traditional Mac & Cheese and Cowboy Mac & Cheese. But, if you’re in the mood for something new, they have that too! There are 2 new drinks, as well as the new Chili-Cheese Macaroni & Cheese. Mac and Eats Menu Now that we’ve gotten the menu out of the way, let’s dig in! Eats First up, we grabbed the newest item to hit this booth — the Chili-Cheese Macaroni & Cheese with Sour Cream and Cheddar Cheese. This item is actually plant-based, so it’s vegan and vegetarian-friendly! Chili Cheese Macaroni and Cheese It’s topped with Fritos, vegan cheese, vegan sour cream, chives, and plant-based chili. Basically, the flavor profile is like a mix between Frito pie, the plant-based totchos from Woody’s Lunch box, and mac and cheese. It’s glorious! Our plant-based eater who tried it was really impressed with the quality of the “cheese.” The chives add a nice green flavor to the heavier parts of the combo, and it all blends together nicely. You can grab it for $5.50. This one was surprisingly amazing! Next up, we have the Traditional Mac & Cheese with Herbed Panko. We’ve had this one in the past, but we decided to check it out again (ya know, for quality control ). All in all, it was basically fine. We wish it would’ve had some more seasoning, like garlic salt or black pepper. Traditional Macaroni and Cheese The mac and cheese itself wasn’t nearly as cheesy or creamy as others that we’ve had around Disney World, so that was a smidge disappointing. It would definitely be better with some toppings! You can get this dish for $5. That’s not a huge portion either. The other returning dish is the Cowboy Macaroni & Cheese with Smoked Pork Belly, Brisket Burnt Ends, Pickled Peppers, and Onion Straws. Yes…this thing is jam-packed with ingredients. The portion size on this dish was a lot better than the traditional version, and it’s topped with HUGE chunks of the pork belly that melt in your mouth. Cowboy Macaroni and Cheese It had a fair amount of sauce on top, and the onion straws provided a good crunchy texture that we enjoyed. It comes with peppers, so those averse to heat should probably order it sans peppers. It’s a pretty heavy option, but you certainly get bang for your buck with that $5.50 price tag. This was hearty and delicious! So what are our thoughts? Overall This year, the Mac & Eats booth lands squarely in the middle for us. Nothing in particular stood out as a “best of the fest” menu item, but we did really enjoy the Cowboy mac and the plant-based Chili Cheese mac. We were a bit disappointed with the traditional version, but we’d definitely still recommend stopping by this booth to try out something…especially if you’re a pasta lover!

Sometimes new and flashy isn’t necessary. You might not always want to eat food that numbs your mouth or pushes your flavor boundaries in Disney World. When you’re looking for a solid, tasty sandwich, we know just the place to go. BoardWalk Deli The NEW BoardWalk Deli is officially OPEN! This spot has officially replaced the BoardWalk Bakery and is now offering breakfast, lunch, and dinner. We’ve already shared a full review of breakfast, which you can see here. But now we’re diving into lunch (which features the same menu as dinner) to share our thoughts. What are you waiting for? Let’s GO! Atmosphere The BoardWalk Deli is located on Disney’s BoardWalk, near the BoardWalk Inn and Villas, and just a few steps away from EPCOT. On the outside, you’ll see the new BoardWalk Deli sign, which looks very similar to the Bakery one that used to be here. BoardWalk Deli The outside features colorful signs… So Fun! …and fun little details to look for. Read the name of the proprietor out loud to see if you get the joke. BoardWalk Deli There are also signs on the outside noting that the Deli Fountain is a resort mug refill station, and plenty of bakery puns (they’re rolling in dough). BoardWalk Deli details On the inside, you’ll find a line to stand in to wait for your order. Get in Line! But note that you can use mobile order and head instead to the mobile order pick-up area. Pick Up Area Once inside the restaurant, you’ll see cases displaying the food items available. What Will You Get? There are a variety of sandwiches to pick from for lunch (more on the menu later)… Sandwich Options …along with lots of pastries… OooOooOo …and some more dessert options. Sweet Treats! After you order and pick up your food, you can also stop to get napkins and condiments… Grab What You Need …or get a drink. Drink Station Now, let’s get to the full menu. Menu The lunch menu here is made up of sandwiches, including a Pastrami Reuben, Grilled Cheese with Tomato-Basil Soup, and a Veggie Crunch Muffaletta. There are also sides available including coleslaw and house-made potato chips. Menu You can also pick up some salads, or simpler sandwiches from the kids’ menu. Salads + Kids Menu You can also stop by the cases to pick up a variety of bakery and dessert items. ©Disney There are also some drinks available, including some with alcohol. Drinks The menu also lists some allergy-friendly options, so be sure to look for those if you do have specific allergy needs. Alright, now let’s get into the food we ordered! Eats First up, we have the Grilled Cheese with Tomato-Basil Soup, which is priced at $9.99. The sandwich is made with Provolone and Cheddar on Multigrain. For those who loved grabbing a grilled cheese at BoardWalk Bakery before, this will be a highlight. But note that it’s not the same as it was before, particularly because it features multigrain bread and overall has changed in terms of ingredients. Grilled Cheese Time The grilled cheese was very good! We enjoyed that it was not just one cheese, but instead featured a combo of 2 kinds of cheese together. A Side View The cheese amount was just right — not too much, and not too little! Just Right! But it’s not a true grilled cheese experience without something to dip it in, right?! The Tomato-Basil soup (which you can get as a side on its own by the way), was also really tasty! We’d say it’s pretty comparable to that tomato-basil soup over at Woody’s Lunch Box in Disney’s Hollywood Studios. This combo from BoardWalk Deli actually ended up being one of our reporter’s FAVORITE dishes of the day! Dunk Away! Next, we had the Chicken Salad Wrap, which is $10.99. This is made with Rotisserie Chicken, Grapes, Walnuts, and Mayonnaise in a Spinach Wrap, served with your choice of Side. We’ll get to the sides in a minute — for now, we’ll focus on the wrap itself. The Wrap This was actually REALLY good! Our reporter who tried it fully admitted that they’re not normally a chicken salad fan, but even this one won them over. It was light on the mayo, but heavy on the rotisserie chicken — making it more filling in that way. We think it could probably use some more grapes though, as it was lacking in that sweetness department. Our Wrap But there were plenty of walnuts in there that added a nice crunch! Just be warned, if you don’t like walnuts or don’t like a lot of crunch in your chicken salad, you might find that there are just too many walnuts in there for you. Wrap Time! Ready to dive into the Roasted Chicken Sandwich? We were, and it’s something we’d happily dive into again. This sandwich is priced at $10.49 and features Cheddar, Lettuce, Tomato, and Roasted Garlic Aïoli on Ciabatta, served with your choice of Side. Roasted Chicken Sandwich Out of allll the dishes we tried (and we tried a LOT), this was one DFB reporter’s second favorite behind the grilled cheese and tomato soup. Overall, it had just the right amount of rotisserie chicken. They didn’t skimp on that, which we really appreciated. Hello Beautiful There was also a good amount of mayonnaise, but not too much (a.k.a. you did NOT feel like you were eating a mayonnaise sandwich with a side of chicken ). Partner all of that with deliciously fresh lettuce and good bread and you’ve got a solid sandwich. Are they reinventing the sandwich wheel and giving you something you can’t get anywhere else? Not really. But it’s still a very tasty option! A True Winner Then it was time for a classic sandwich you may have had many times at many other places — the Italian Sub. This is priced at $11.49 and features Capicola, Soppressata, Pepperoni, Provolone, Arugula, Tomato, Arugula Pesto, and Mayonnaise on Ciabatta, served with your choice of Side. Italian Sub Time Again, Disney did NOT skimp on the meat here, which was great! We really enjoyed each of the different meat options included in the sandwich. They all provided a great flavor to the sandwich as a whole. It is very much your traditional Italian sub, but that’s not necessarily a bad thing if an Italian sub is just what you’re craving. YUUUUM There was a pretty good amount of pesto on the sandwich, but we would have preferred a touch more. Overall, it was another solid sandwich. Fresh bread with a lovely crunch, a good amount of meat, great cheese, and tasty pesto — what’s not to love? There’s a lot to Enjoy Rounding up the meat-focused sandwiches, we have the Warm Pastrami Reuben. This is the most expensive sandwich at $12.99. It features Sauerkraut, Swiss, and Thousand Island Dressing on Marble Rye, served with your choice of Side. The Sandwich This is a sandwich you might love…or you might hate. Our reporter who tried it does not like sauerkraut and finds it too bitter, so it was easily their least favorite of the bunch. But if you love sauerkraut, then this might be a total win for you. Yay or Nay? The bread was wonderful, and the pastrami was delicious and well cooked. It was really the sauerkraut that made this a not-so-great option for our reporter. But if you love pastrami and sauerkraut, this is probably a solid option to pick up as a quick lunch. It All Depends! While there, we also grabbed the Veggie Crunch Muffuletta sandwich, which is priced at $10.49. This is a plant-based dish made with Cured and Pickled Root Vegetables, “Cheese”, and Olive-Vegetable Tapenade on Focaccia, served with your choice of Side. Muffaletta The veggies reportedly come from a farm in Ohio called The Chef’s Garden. From what we understand, the farm was originally focused on more traditional farming, but they later started reaching out to chefs around the country to find out what they would be interested in purchasing for their restaurants. Ultimately, The Chef’s Table ended up being a farm with the mission of growing the hard-to-find specialty produce that American chefs were requesting. The veggies in the sandwich, while very tasty, are not fresh. Instead, they are cured or pickled in various ways. The overwhelming flavor was of pickled vegetables, which our reporter really enjoyed. But if you’re not a fan of that pickled vegetable flavor, this would be something to avoid. Would You Try This? Just like with the other sandwiches, the bread was delicious. It was very thick, fluffy, and chewy — YUM, YUM, YUM! There was vegan cheese on this sandwich too, which can be a bit offputting sometimes (even for those who might eat a vegan diet). But we were actually really surprised and impressed by this cheese. It was quite good! A Good Pick! Now, let’s get to the sides. We tried coleslaw and house-made chips. The chips were BIG, suuuuuuuper crispy, and perfectly salty. And they were splashed with a little bit of vinegar. They didn’t have the intensity of a store-bought salt and vinegar chip, but instead just had a touch of that vinegar flavor. Chips Umm…yeah, someone hand us a whole bowl of these, please! One of our reporters actually declared these their FAVORITE house-made chips in all of Disney World. We’ll Take MORE! The coleslaw was pretty good. It tastes like any other coleslaw you might have had. It does have a certain freshness and sharpness to it that makes it evident that it was made in-house, but at least for us, it could have used a bit more salt and pepper. It wasn’t bad by any means, but also wasn’t anything you’ll be raving about. Coleslaw That’s a look at what we got, but keep in mind that the menu also features salads… Salad …drinks… Drinks …and lots of pastries and sweets. Pastry Options So you can add more things to your meal. Nosh or Not Head on over to BoardWalk Deli if… You LOVE a good sandwich — Sometimes there’s nothing better than a good sandwich or sub on some tasty bread. It can fill you up, but still leave you feeling a bit lighter than some of the heavier meals around Disney World. If it’s a good sandwich you’re after, this has some solid options. You want a quick meal — This is a counter service spot, so you’ll just pick up your food and sit at an available table to eat. You could grab your food and walk along the BoardWalk, sit down on a bench and eat while people watching, or even take it back to your hotel. That adds a nice level of convenience. You want a relatively cheap meal — The most expensive sandwich on the menu comes in at $12.99 and it comes with a side. You could also go for a cheaper option and grab the grilled cheese and soup for $9.99. Overall, the prices here are much more friendly than what you’d see at, say, a table service restaurant or even some other counter service spots. Our Spread Skip the BoardWalk Deli if… You’re looking for some really unique food you can’t get anywhere else — While this has some fun and tasty options, and some of the options (like that plant-based muffuletta) are a bit more on the unique side, many of the offerings are pretty standard in terms of the ingredients they feature and how they’ve been combined. You’re looking for a longer, more relaxing meal with lots of indoor seating — This is a counter service spot, which means you’ll just grab your food and go. And seating is essentially all outside. So if you’re looking to sit down indoors, take your time, and really relax with a long, extended meal, this isn’t the spot to go to. You’ve got picky eaters in the bunch — While many of the offerings are pretty standard (chicken sandwiches, etc.) there aren’t too many things on the menu. And the kids’ meal options are limited to a ham and cheese sandwich and grilled cheese sandwich. If you’ve got someone who needs chicken tenders or simply isn’t a sandwich eater, this might not fit your needs. Overall Overall, BoardWalk Deli is a pretty solid addition to the BoardWalk area. If you want a quick meal after a day at EPCOT, are craving a sandwich, or even just want to stop by for a snack and cupcake, it provides all that in one convenient, quick-service restaurant. It’s Got It All In many ways, it still serves the same essential functions of having baked goods and sandwiches as the BoardWalk Bakery did. But it comes with the added bonus of some NEW sweet treats and sandwich offerings, house-made chips, pickles, and breads, and other more unique offerings. Is it the BEST food you’ll eat in all of Disney World? Is it the most UNIQUE food you’ll get on property? Maybe not. But sometimes you don’t need to reinvent the wheel. Sometimes you just need a tasty sandwich, fresh bread, and some awesome chips. And for that, BoardWalk Deli does the job well. Would You Stop By?

Each item in the collection features a design filled with Haunted Mansion icons, including the Caretaker and his dog, Madame Leota, the Hitchhiking Ghosts, Constance Hatchaway (the bride), Ballroom Dancers, and more! We’ll start off with the Haunted Mansion Wristlet Wallet. Now, if you buy this in Disney World it’s actually cheaper than it is online, coming in at $148. But online, the item is eerily $158 instead.

It’s completely normal for things to close in Disney World! Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort What do we mean? Well, Disney World rides, attractions, shows, and hotel rooms often close temporarily to get refurbished and fixed up. Sometimes it’s routine maintenance, sometimes it’s to fix something that’s broken, and sometimes it’s a complete refresh. (Like with many of the hotel room updates we’ve seen recently!) Now, a popular Disney World restaurant has closed for a short refurbishment. As of August 15th, 2022, Kona Cafe at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort has closed temporarily. The Disney World website states that they will be reopening the restaurant in fall 2022 with an “enhanced table service experience.” Kona Cafe But during this closure, guests will still be able to use the My Disney Experience app to order breakfast, lunch, and dinner from Kona Cafe To-Go, with pickup right next to Kona Island. We’ll be sure to keep an eye on construction over the next few months and share any updates that we find!

EPCOT’s 2022 International Food & Wine Festival kicked off back in mid-July, but not all of the food booths were open, until now! Hawai’i 2022 We’ve already tried a ton of food from the festival, like some old favorites, new surprises, and a few disappointments. But, we’ve been waiting for the rest of the booths to open up! A handful of booths are finally opening up today, including a big fan favorite — Hawai’i! So, let’s see if this booth still lives up to the hype. Menu Over at the Hawai’i booth, you’ll find a variety of available items, like the returning Kālua Pork Slider and Passion Fruit Cheesecake. But, there’s also an exciting new item that we’re itching to try — the SPAM Musubi Nigiri! A look at the menu Now that we’ve taken a look at the menu, let’s dive into the food itself! Eats We’ve got a LOT of things to try, so let’s get into it! First up, we grabbed the new SPAM Musubi Nigiri of course! This has sushi rice, teriyaki-glazed SPAM, spicy mayonnaise, eel sauce, and nori for $6. SPAM Musubi Nigiri This was absolutely delicious! The SPAM had the soft texture that you would get from raw fish in sushi but it tastes meaty (duh — it’s meat!). It’s very pretty, too! The seaweed was also not chewy at all and the spicy mayo was mostly mayo with little to no spiciness, so don’t worry about it being too hot for you! We’re big fans This was super easy to snack on and we think it’s a great dish for people who want an introduction to sushi or for people who don’t like raw fish! It’s also a great way to introduce some of those same textures and flavors to kids — it’s a lot of the same textures minus that of the raw fish. We give this a gold star! This is a good one for picky eaters as well! And, the seaweed salad was also tasty. YUM! Next, we got the returning Kālua Pork Slider. This slider comes with sweet-and-sour DOLE pineapple chutney and spicy mayonnaise for $5.75. This one is usually pretty tasty, but how is it this year? Kālua Pork Slider Good news, folks — this is still really good! The flavors of the Hawaiian roll, pineapple chutney, and pork are all on the sweeter side, but they make a great combo when you put them all together. A reliable favorite! The spicy mayo helped cut through some of that sweetness and complimented the other flavors well, but it’s not very spicy at all, so don’t expect a bunch of heat from this dish! If you’re looking for a snack that’s a bit heartier or meatier, this is a great option! Delish For the final food item, we have the returning Passion Fruit Cheesecake with toasted macadamia nuts for $4.50. This one is also a part of Emile’s Fromage Montage, AKA the Cheese Crawl, so it can count toward your journey on eating a bunch of cheese at the festival! We’ve loved this creamy dessert in the past, so hopefully it’s still as good! Passion Fruit Cheesecake The cheesecake lived up to our expectations yet again! The texture is super smooth and is similar to a regular cheesecake, so if you don’t like that texture, this might not be the treat for you. A great little dessert! It’s a very sweet dessert with a ton of fruitiness from the passion fruit. Big fans The macadamia nuts also add a subtle saltiness and crunchiness that went really well with the cheesecake! Tasty! Now, for the drinks! Drinks All of the drinks on the menu this year are returning from previous years. First up, we have the AULANI Sunrise, which has vodka, DOLE pineapple juice, and grenadine for $14. In the past, this has proven to be a VERY sweet drink with a lot of pineapple flavor. AULANI Sunrise This drink was as delicious as usual! It’s a simple cocktail that we think will appeal to a lot of different people. SUCH a pretty color The main flavor we first got was pineapple, but the more we drank, the more it turned into a mostly vodka flavor. So, we’d recommend stirring this drink WELL to get those flavors all together! Great on a hot day! This drink is super refreshing as well, and it has that signature DOLE pineapple flavor! A great drink! Also returning to the drink menu this year is the Kona Brewing Co. Hanalei Island IPA, which is $5 for a 6 oz. and $9 for a 12 oz. This beer made us feel like we were on a beach — it’s fruity and it’s not as heavy as a lot of other IPAs tend to be. The sweeter notes stand out which makes it great in the warm weather! Kona Brewing Co. Hanalei Island IPA Finally, the Florida Orange Groves Sparkling Pineapple Wine has returned to the booth for $10. We’ve seen this wine at various booths at several different EPCOT festivals over the years. Florida Orange Groves Sparkling Pineapple Wine This wine has a strong pineapple flavor and is very sweet, so it’s should be refreshing on a hot day, but only if you enjoy sweet wines. Overall Overall, the Hawai’i Booth has lived up to the hype! This is a delicious booth with a lot of options for all kinds of eaters. The food here is adventurous while still having some familiarity. We can honestly say we enjoyed everything we tried! If you want some tropical flavors or some unique dishes that you most likely won’t be able to find at home (unless your home is Hawai’i!), then this is definitely a booth that you shouldn’t miss! And, that Passion Fruit Cheesecake is a great dessert option to help you fill out your Cheese Crawl!

When it comes to making your way around Disney World, you’ve got plenty of transportation options. Disney Skyliner You can take monorails, boats, buses — even Minnie Vans! Disney’s newest method of transportation — the Skyliner — debuted in 2019 and has given a whole new meaning to the term “scenic route.” But, if you’re heading to Disney World in the future be warned — the Skyliner will be closing for refurbishment SOON and we’ve got all the details! Disney’s Skyliner is a convenient way to get from one place to another in Disney World. There are currently stops at EPCOT, Hollywood Studios, Disney’s Caribbean Beach Resort, and Pop Century and Art of Animation Resorts. Winnie the Pooh! But, if you’re planning an upcoming Disney World vacation and want to use the Skyliner as your main method of transportation, you may need to make other plans. Disney’s Skyliner will be closed for refurbishment from January 22nd to 29th, 2023! The Skyliner is closing for refurbishment. We saw a similar closure occur earlier this year around the same time, so it’s possible that this is just yearly routine maintenance. We spoke with a Cast Member via chat who confirmed the closure dates. ©Disney If you’re heading to the parks around this time, keep this in mind and plan for alternate transportation. Both EPCOT and Hollywood Studios are within walking distance of a few hotels, and so is Magic Kingdom! You also have the option of taking a Disney bus or a boat depending on your current location and destination. If you’re trying to get somewhere in a hurry, consider using a rideshare service like Uber or Lyft. Disney’s Skyliner can be super convenient! Looking for more Disney World news?

What’s better than a Disney snack? An upgraded Disney snack, of course. Mickey Bar You know the saying, “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it?” Yeah, we’ll need you to completely disregard that for a second. Dole Whips, Churros, Mickey Pretzels, and Cotton Candy are great snacks in their own right. But what if we told you there’s a way to make them better? Yes…better. We’ve carefully experimented with snacks around Disney World, and today, we’re bringing you the 5 DFB Snack Hacks for $5 or less! Before starting with our list of snack hacks, we wanted to provide a disclaimer: the snack in its entirety will usually not be $5 or less — only the “hack” part of the snack will be. Alright, here comes our list of snack hacks…enjoy! Chocolate Mickey Pretzel YEP. You read that right. A Chocolate Mickey Pretzel. You’re probably already familiar with the cheese sauce you can dunk your pretzel into. But how about chocolate?! To get this snack hack, pick up your Mickey Pretzel from a Magic Kingdom Hub cart, and then buy a Chocolate Dipping Sauce for $1. (You can usually find the sauce at the popcorn cart which also sells churros.) Chocolate on our PRETZELS! Dip your pretzel into the sauce, and there ya have it — a Chocolate Mickey Pretzel! Dip and Enjoy! It’s a fun way to recreate a chocolate-covered pretzel, but perhaps it was even better, thanks to the warm, soft breading. 10/10 would recommend. Check Out The Chocolate Mickey Pretzel Snack Hack Here Coconut Dole Whip Churro Sundae This tastes just as good as it sounds. To get this hack, you’ll want to head over to Pecos Bill Tall Tale Inn and Café in Frontierland to grab the EARidescent Nugget Churros. They’re bite-sized Churros with a side of Chocolate Dipping Sauce. Once you have them, you’ll need to head over to Aloha Isle to grab a cup of Coconut Dole Whip for $4.99! See where this is going? Coconut Dole Whip Sundae! Place that Coconut Dole Whip on top of your Churros, and add the Chocolate Dipping Sauce for good measure! Eat it with a fork…or use the Churros as a spoon. YUM! You’ll never eat Churros the “normal” way again! Check Out The Coconut Dole Whip Churro Sundae Snack Hack Here Kyber Crystal Mocktail Okay…this hack includes Blue Milk from Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge in Disney’s Hollywood Studios. DON’T scroll away! Even if you’re not a fan of Blue Milk, we really recommend trying this hack out. Obviously, you’ll need to grab a cup of Blue Milk for this hack. And then, you’ll need to grab some Pink Cotton Candy (although any color works) for $4.99. Place your Cotton Candy (which acts as your edible Kyber Crystal) on top of your Blue Milk… It’s shrinking! …and watch it dissolve to create your Kyber Crystal Mocktail! Introducing… the Kyber Crystal! It’s a really cool effect, and creates a pretty drink. It does add more sweetness to the drink, and the kiddos will love this experiment! Check Out The Kyber Crystal Mocktail Here Grilled Cheeeeeese Donut With Bacon This snack isn’t on the menu at Everglazed Donuts & Cold Brew at Disney Springs, so it’s a secret hack. (Shhhh!) You’ll want to order the Grilled Cheeeeeese (yes, that’s how you spell it), and then upgrade from the sweet bun to a Griddle Glazed Donut for $1. And then, for an extra dollar, you’ll want to throw some bacon in there. A DFB Snack Hack at Everglazed Donuts & Cold Brew And that’s how you get this Grilled Cheeeeeese Donut with Bacon! Crispy bacon, tons of cheese, and a sweet kick? Yeah, you’ll want to give this one a try. Check Out the Grilled Cheeeeeese Donut With Bacon Snack Hack Here Spicy Dole Whip Head over to Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort for this snack hack! This works with any Dole Whip flavor, so grab whatever one you want. We grabbed the Raspberry and Lemon Dole Whip, and then grabbed a FREE packet of Tajin (the spicy chile/lime seasoning). A Spiced Up Dole Whip! We poured the entire packet of Tajin on top of the Dole Whip, and…YUM. It had a great kick of spice, which mixed well with the creamy, refreshing Dole Whip. Of course, if you aren’t a fan of spice, this hack won’t be for you. But we still recommend grabbing a regular Dole Whip while you’re over there — you won’t regret it! Check Out The Spicy Dole Whip Snack Hack Here And there ya have it — 5 DFB Snack Hacks for $5 or under! For more snack hacks at any price range, check out this post.

Disney World is not afraid of BIG changes. BoardWalk Deli Disney’s BoardWalk is currently going through a massive transformation, with new restaurants on the way along with the BoardWalk Inn itself getting some changes and updates. The BoardWalk Bakery closed in July to make way for the new BoardWalk Deli. We previously saw the full menu for the new restaurant and its new sign, and now we have a HUGE update! The BoardWalk Deli is officially open! Formerly the home of the BoardWalk Bakery, this deli shop now serves baked bread, hot and cold deli sandwiches, and bakery items for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. But don’t forget, more new spots are on the way. In 2023, Disney’s BoardWalk is expected to see the opening of the new table service restaurant The Cake Bake Shop by Gwendolyn Rogers, and the BoardWalk Inn is supposed to be getting a new coffee shop and new lobby designs sometime in the future. ©Disney Keep following DFB for more Disney World news!
