I LOVE IT When Disney Actually LISTENS

We would like to think that Disney is receptive to some of the things us fans come up with or request.

Sleepy Hollow

For example, when Disney World removed the hush puppies from the menu at Columbia Harbour House, there was a LOT of chatter from folks who were upset that this favorite snack disappeared. Then Disney brought that snack back. We’ve seen instances of where Disney has also taken some of our ideas for snack hacks and made them permanent additions to the menu. Well, y’all, it’s happened again! Disney has taken one of our snack hacks and added it to the menu!

So speaking of questionable Disney decisions, Disney recently took one of our favorite snacks off the menu at Sleepy Hollow Refreshments. This was the the Fresh Fruit Waffle Sandwich that came with bananas, berries, and chocolate-hazelnut spread (we’re just not going to talk about the tragedy of how the waffles changed right now, okay?).

So we had to do what we had to do and hack the new menu at Sleepy Hollow to at least TRY to get our favorite snack back. So here’s the thing, the Fresh Fruit Waffle Sandwich was replaced by a Mickey Waffle topped with EITHER chocolate-hazelnut spread and bananas, OR berries and powdered sugar. You couldn’t get one with all the stuff together.

However, we recently were browsing the Mobile Order menu at Sleepy Hollow and noticed a new option. For just $1, you could add berries to the Mickey Waffle with Chocolate-Hazelnut Spread and Bananas, therefore creating as close of a recreation of the old snack (minus the better waffle) as possible.

So, a new DFB snack hack was created! But wait, because now, there’s been a new development. You can now actually order this on the menu without doing any kind of hacking. The Mobile Order menu now includes a Mickey Waffle with Chocolate-Hazelnut Spread, Bananas, Berries, and Whipped Cream. And the good news? It’s the same price as what our hacked waffle ended up costing! So, it seems like Disney was paying attention when we said we wanted the old waffle snack back…sort of.

Now, you can sort of get the old favorite snack, save for the superior waffle. So, what’s our problem with the Mickey waffles? Don’t get us wrong — we love Mickey-shaped snacks, but this one just doesn’t hold up very well with heavy toppings like that. It gets soggy, and it reminds us more of a pancake than the previous waffles, which had crisper edges and were tastier. So just in case you’re paying attention, Disney, could you bring back the old waffles, please?
