Pickles and Corn Dogs — our favorite Halloween snacks.

Just kidding…kinda. We here at DFB love Halloween and sometimes wish we could celebrate it all year long. Lucky for us, Disney is celebrating Halfway to Halloween with some spooky eats and treats! So, let’s see how pickles and corn dogs will combine to bring some scary flavor to Disneyland!

To celebrate being halfway to one of our favorite holidays, Disney has conjured up some special snacks, including the Cheddar Pickle Dog from Blue Ribbon Corn Dogs in Downtown Disney! You can get it for $15.

Now, you’ve probably heard of this snack before — it’s pretty divisive. If you loved it, you loved it. If you disliked it, you really disliked it. It’s a corn dog, except instead of just the hot dog being inside, there is a hot dog INSIDE of a pickle on the inside (a bit confusing, right?).

You may still be wondering how in the world this snack would even be considered Halloween-related. Well, the spooky vibes come from the sprinkled cheddar cheese that provides that pop of orange!

We’ve tried it before (without the cheddar cheese) and it was actually pretty good, but let’s see how it is with cheddar on the outside!

This was actually pretty tasty! The pickle added a refreshing crunch to the corn dog, and the cheddar cheese with all of the other flavors made an amazing combo. We honestly wish there was another version of this minus the pickle, so that it was just a corn dog with the cheddar cheese, because that would be phenomenal!

Now, this isn’t normal cheddar cheese, it’s more like Cheeto dust, so be aware of that. But, the addition of the cheddar dust did make this a very tasty and interesting snack. This IS very messy to eat, though. It’s hard to get a good bite with everything in it, so we’d suggest cutting the corndog before you dig in to make it a little easier.

If you aren’t a fan of pickles, we wouldn’t get this, though, because there is a strong pickle flavor. But, if you do like them, this should be a delicious snack for you!

Oh yeah, and this baby comes with a peanut butter dipping sauce. You read that right, peanut butter on a pickle dog! It weirdly works together for some people. We enjoyed it on the regular pickle dog we had last year, but we didn’t like it as much on this cheese version — it definitely works better on the normal pickle dog!

The Cheddar Pickle Dog will only be offered April 28th-May 1st, so if you’re passing through Downtown Disney during this time, you can pick up this very orange Halloween snack! Stay tuned to DFB for more Disney food news and updates.

There have been a number of changes made within the last several months and years when it comes to leadership within the Walt Disney Company.

Bob Iger has officially left the company after most recently working as Executive Chairman, some Imagineers have left, and Disney even hired a new spokesperson with political experience. But now things are changing again.

According to Deadline, after less than 4 months on the job, Geoff Morrell will be leaving his position as Chief Corporate Affairs Officer. Disney CEO Bob Chapek sent a memorandum out today regarding this change.

In the memo, Chapek noted that Morrell would be leaving to “pursue other opportunities.” In an email sent from Morrell, Morrell himself shared, “After three months in this new role, it has become clear to me that for a number of reasons it is not the right fit.”

Earlier this year, Morrell tweeted (and swiftly deleted) the opening date for the Guardians of the Galaxy ride coming to EPCOT prior to its official announcement, as reported by The Hollywood Reporter.

According to Deadline, Chapek’s memo noted that “the strength and experience of our existing leadership team—including relatively new all-star hires—means there is no shortage of talent to guide our reputation-driving functions.”

He then went on to note who will be taking over Morrell’s role. First we have Kristina Schake. Schake has experience in the Obama and Biden administrations, and was recently hired by  Disney to serve as Executive Vice President, Global Communications and lead spokesperson.

Schake’s title won’t change, but she will report directly to Chapek and will have an expanded role, taking over part of Morrell’s role. In this expanded role, Chapek noted that she’ll “have oversight for corporate and segment communications and continue to be our chief spokesperson.” She’ll essentially handle Disney’s communications efforts.

According to Chapek, “Kristina has a strategic approach and collaborative style, as well as relentless optimism and a strong appreciation of our brand and its place in the world. These attributes will be invaluable as she works to protect and enhance our reputation, and I am thrilled to be working with her more closely.”

Then we have Horacio Gutierrez. Gutierrez currently serves as General Counsel. He will now also handle Government Relations and Global Public Policy.

Chapek also noted that more individuals will report directly to Horacio. Specifically, “Susan Fox, Senior Vice President for Government Relations, and Yvonne Pei, Senior Vice President, External Relations, Greater China, will join Dorothy Attwood, Senior Vice President, Global Public Policy, in reporting directly to Horacio.”

Finally, there’s Jenny Cohen. Cohen is Executive Vice President, Corporate Social Responsibility. Because of Morrell’s departure, she will report solely to Chapek in her role “leading our CSR and ESG efforts.”

Chapek noted that Cohen has done “incredible work modernizing our approach in key areas like environmental sustainability, community investment, and philanthropy.”

These changes come following weeks where Disney’s name has often made headlines in relation to the handling of the situation surrounding the Parental Rights in Education Bill (what critics call the “Don’t Say Gay” bill) in Florida, the dissolution of Disney World’s Reedy Creek Improvement District by the Florida legislature, and more.

Deadline says that “the hope at the highest level is that Morrell’s removal and the new reorganization will allow the media giant to come out from underneath the falling debris of the current situation.”

We’ll continue to look for more updates and share those with you. Be sure to check back with us for all the latest Disney news.

The airline will also begin flying to New York, Fort Lauderdale, and Los Angeles from Oslo, Norway. “Norse now offers the lowest one-way point to point transatlantic fares in the market,” according to CEO of Norse Atlantic Airways, Bjorn Tore Larsen.

Flights between Oslo and Orlando will begin on July 5th, 2022, and there will be three flights per week. One way fares begin at a little over $162 and you can choose from Economy or Premium cabins.

Norse Atlantic Airways is actually a new airline that was founded in March of 2021. They have a fleet of 15 Boeing 787 Dreamliners, which they say are fuel-efficient and more environmentally friendly. The first flights for the company will take off in June.
