While the amazing rides and attractions at Walt Disney World and Disneyland are obviously the main reason to go, you gotta stay fueled up for all that fun, and some Disney snacks are worth putting on your list alongside the other experiences.
The best snacks at Disney are as Instagrammable as they are tasty, and a recent study by Disney travel planning group Magic Guides analyzed Instagram hashtag counts for more than 50 food and drink options exclusive to Disney parks around the world. The number of snack snaps from the parks shows that Disney snacks are as much a part of the whimsical, imaginative fabric of the Disney experience as the attractions, and the hashtag counts reveal the ones that are far and away the Disney fan favorites.
Coming in at number one with more hashtags than the rest of the top 10 list combined is the famed Dole Whip. The creamy, pineapple-flavored frozen treat had 316,535 recorded Instagram posts. The snack was introduced in 1986 and has been a favorite ever since.
The number two most-Instagrammed snack at Disney is the otherworldly Blue Milk drink. The plant-based drink is inspired by the Star Wars cinematic universe and can be found in Disney’s Galaxy’s Edge. Blue Milk had 55,275 hashtags. Green Milk, the other drink on offer at Galaxy’s Edge, proves to be not as popular, coming in at number four.
Third on the list with 30,407 hashtags is the Mickey Pretzel. Not only does this classic soft pretzel satisfy a salty craving, it’s probably one of the cutest snacks available—you can’t help but smile at Mickey’s face before tearing off one of his big ears.
Wrapping up the list of the top ten most popular snacks at Disney parks, in order, are Green Milk, Mickey Waffle, Disney Popcorn Bucket, Mickey Beignets, Night Blossom, Disney Churro and Mickey's Premium Ice Cream Bar.
