ooohhhh, those cheeseburger eggrolls are so good. I recommend pairing with a Dole Float and a small dose of Lipitor.

The hot dog nuggets at Casey's are always a hit. Get, it? Casey's...hit? Recommended pairing, french fries.

Hot fudge sundae at Plaza Ice Cream served in whatever adorable Mickey Pants or Goofy Head they have at the moment. Recommended pairing, two spoons and 20 napkins.

And the moist, savory, salty, goodness of the WDW turkey leg. Recommended pairing, Diet Coke

Not always. I know exactly where Kristen's going with this. For example: chocolate covered strawberries. You take one bite (not the whole thing..that would be "vulture-like") and ALL of the chocolate coating comes off. Sure, that chocolate is now in the napkin you're holding under it, but now you just have a piece of slimey chocolate and a piece of strawberry. Then you have to bite the remaining strawberry and put that piece of chocolate in at the same time and suddenly you're a slob cause it's not pretty! I can see this same problem happening with the chocolate covered pineapple (though the idea sounds delicious!)

rolling
That is *precisely* what was going through my mind! I L-O-V-E chocolate covered strawberries, but the chocolate always falls off and it's down right annoying.

Here's an article on the Pineapple Spear with a couple of photos. The pineapple is just so juicy and very refreshing.

I don't care what anyone says about them, they are damn good and I'll have them every time we we go! Chocolate falling off or not!

To be clear, nobody said anything negative about them. No one questioned their deliciousness either...just questioned the "Chocolate Falling off of Fruit Effect", a very real and very annoying condition to some. silly I hope I agree with your opinions because I love both chocolate AND pineapple so I'm willing to give it a go! (Though after having had pineapple in Maui it's never been quite the same).

I will totally add this to my research!

See, now that spear in the picture doesn't look so bad. There's a nice bit out of it without the chocolate completely falling off. Perhaps it's the size of the strawberries that is the problem. I think the length and shape of the chocolate covering the pineapple may make it so that it doesn't have the strawberry problem.

Hahaha! This absolutely needs some intense research.

It also depends on the outside temperature, whether it is mid July or January, if you eat it right from the case or walk around with it in the sun. There is a huge range of scenario's that could change the outcome.

Fabulous! Any idea what time they open that cart? I'll be finishing up Pirates at around 9:45 Wednesday morning. Think they'll be open?

We tried them in the early afternoon, I think? I would expect they open by 11am. It's like eating a McDonald's cheeseburger in a spring roll wrapper. I could even taste the pickle! They were ok, but don't know if I'll have them again.

It would have to be a Funnel Cake!, but I can no longer have them
Next would be a Mickey's Ice Cream Bar though sometimes I go for the Minnie Strawberry Bar, and I can still have both of those!
We used to always get Carmel Popcorn at Sleepy Hallow too, but I don't think they have it anymore, but I LOVE the Werthers Carmel Popcorn in Germany, we got some fresh last time!

For me it's either a dole whip or one of the pickles, those are so amazingly delicious!

Each visit I have to have either a jalapeno cream cheese pretzel or a plain Mickey pretzel with a side of cheese sauce for dipping. My DH always has a sweet cream cheese pretzel. But he is trying the cheeseburger egg rolls for the first time next weekend and I suspect he's going to have a brand new must have snack after he's tried those eggrolls biggrin

I didn't think popcorn could be special until I got some in MK right before a parade last trip. It was amazing. I don't know what the difference to the popcorn I make at home is, but I can't wait for the next time I can afford to cross the pond!

Also, School Bread. Last trip I decided to try a trolls horn instead and even now I'm wondering why I didn't just buy both... (Although I found the horn a bit disappointing, very creamy but couldn't taste much berry flavour?)

Yup, the pickles! I love the pickles! Especially on a hot day, an ice cold dill pickle is awesome. I turned Ken on to these this trip too.

EPCOT - at a kiosk between Mouse Gears at Mission Space next to the DVC stand.
Not sure were else you can get them.

They are only $1.59

So, over the years I've had added so many to my list of fine treats and ask "why have I never had this before!!!". Last vacation I had a caramel apple for the first time from Big Top Treats, huge fan now and corn from Liberty Square yum. The trip before it was cake pops from Main Street Bakery. It really is hard to just say one, but the thing I always look forward to and to be honest, schedule things around getting one........ a Root Beer Float.

Dole whip

While I always have a Dole Whip at Walt Disney World. I have yet to have one at Disneyland. During my first visit, the line was too long when I found it. I was too busy exploring the park to wait in line. I planned on stopping back but never did.

When I went last month, I discovered there was a second line on the other side while waiting to go in to the Tiki Room. I didn't know if I would have enough time to eat before the show since most places don't allow food. I found out too late that I could have brought it in with me. Again, I planned on stopping back but never did.
