Recently the Disney Channel pulled an episode of the popular “Jessie” starring Disney darling Debby Ryan. It received much backlash from parents because of its insensitivity towards children with severe food allergies. In this particular episode a new character named Stuart who has a gluten allergy is made fun of and ridiculed and also characterized as bratty and high maintenance. For example in one scene a character throws food at the child and the studio audience and character laugh along with the joke as if it wasn’t detrimental towards the child.

Magic Kingdom’s Top Snack Locations
Whether you are on the Disney Dining Plan or not, who can resist a snack while at the Magic Kingdom? There are so many snack locations to choose from that it can be hard to narrow down to the one that hits the spot. Let’s explore my family’s best snack locations found in the Magic Kingdom to help you know where to go. I have listed one snack location per Magic Kingdom Land so no matter where you are in the park, you can find a scrumptious treat!
- Main Street, U.S.A.’s Main Street Bakery would normally win out in my family for the top snack location, but it is currently closed for refurbishment and should re-open sometime in June 2013. Our close runner up is Plaza Ice Cream Parlor where you can get tasty hand-dipped ice cream cones, sundaes, and floats. They have the most adorable Mickey Mouse Ice Cream Cone that has 2 chocolate wafers as Mickey’s ears.
- Adventureland is home to the infamous Dole Whip at Aloha Isle. You can get the Dole Whip as soft-serve, soft-serve swirl, or a float. Any option is a great way to taste the original pineapple-y goodness.
