When Guests enjoy a vacation at the Walt Disney World Resort, one of their favorite things to do is indulge in snacks that they would never get to try at home. There are plenty of iconic eats that have come to be favorites over the years like Turkey Legs, Dole Whips, the Mickey Pretzel, Caramel Corn from Karamell-Kuche, School Bread, ice cream sundaes, and many more, but most of the known options are found in the Disney Parks.
While there are certainly great snacks to enjoy at the four Disney Parks, the Disney Resorts at the Walt Disney World Resort also boast a number of delicious and unique snacks that cannot be found anywhere else on property. From savory to sweet and everything in between, let’s check out some of the best snacks at the Walt Disney World Resort that can only be found at Disney Resorts!
