Disney popcorn. It’s an iconic snack for good reason.
Popcorn!
Not only is it one of the first things you smell when you enter a Disney Park, but it also comes in a variety of flavors throughout the resort, from the fun mixes at Kat Saka’s Kettle in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge to those special blends you can buy in the Magic Kingdom to take home. But we bet there’s something you don’t know about that popcorn.
Believe it or not, many of Disney’s popcorn flavors are often made in collaboration with a local Florida Business called Popcorn Junkie. This family-run business owned by Neal and Minetta Crosier became the gourmet popcorn supplier for Disney World in 2018. You’ll find Popcorn Junkie flavors ACROSS Disney Parks as well as on Disney Cruise Line.
