Disney Food Trivia

  • Unless you bring gum with you, you cannot buy gum at any Disney theme park. This helps keep the park clean and reduces the chance of stepping in or sitting on old gum.
  • Disneyland invented Doritos as a way to use stale tortilla chips. 
  • To lure people in, many food places use special vents to send the smell of their food outside. You may notice certain places in Disney Park always smell like certain foods. It’s because the aroma is strategically placed there through vents to get you to hunt down the savory and sweet treats.
  • Have you heard of the phrase, “When you can’t have it, the more you want it”? Well, Disney uses this idea for their secret menu. People hear “secret menu” and want those items even more. Thankfully, all the employees know how to make all their “secret” dishes. 
  • At Walt Disney World alone, people eat 3,800,000 churros every year!
  • Disney chefs use 90 different kinds of cheese throughout their menu items.
  • It’s said that the very first Mickey-shaped food was pancakes.
