Since this is the Disney FOOD Blog, let’s start with the food. Can you tell what we’re most excited about? The POPCORN! But this isn’t just any old popcorn. It’s the Werther’s Original Caramel Popcorn, which you might recognize if you’ve ever visited Karamell-Küche in EPCOT. (And yes, we checked. It’s the same recipe as the stuff in Florida. PHEW!) This stuff is warm, fresh, buttery, salty, and LOADED with that signature Werther’s caramel. We dream about this popcorn. It’s heavenly.
