food IS a theme park
While Walt Disney World may be the “Most Magical Place on Earth”, guests who visit still need to take care of very human needs, including eating, staying hydrated, and… going to the bathroom.
Bathrooms
That’s why we’ve assembled lists of the best Disney World bathrooms, and the worst ones! However, there’s one that we often try to avoid at all costs!
It’s my job to eat my way around Disney World, and I recently tackled the EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival!
Hi, I’m DFB Breea!
Here at DFB, we’re serious about Disney World snacks and restaurants (it’s in our name, after all). Each year, we send a whole team of reporters (including yours truly!) to the first day of each EPCOT festival to try all the new eats, as well as some familiar favorites. I was there for the opening day of Food & Wine this year, and I’ve got some hot tips to share.

The Haunted Mansion at Disney World is an iconic Disney parks attraction.
Haunted Mansion
Nestled in Liberty Square, this attraction invites riders to step inside and ride a Doombuggy as you get to explore inside the mansion as well as the mansion’s grounds. The 999 Happy Haunts are excited to welcome you in because, as they say, “There’s always room for one more!” It is no surprise that, just like many attractions in Disney World, the Haunted Mansion has tons of hidden details.

While these tunnels are on almost every Disney Adult’s bucket list to explore, sometimes the Cast Members who have access to them hate them!
