It was a bold choice to be sure.
Wed love to tailgate at Disney World, but that is absolutely not allowed.
And not just for the DIY fire.
Technically, you cant bring hot dogs to Disney.
Unless you pickled them.
Or had a pocket full of canned Vienna sausages.
Thats all totally fine.
Heres everything it’s crucial that you know about bringing food into Disney World parks.
Can You Bring Drinks Into Disney World?
Water bottles are allowed as long as theyre not glass.
What Food Is Allowed in Disney World?
Shelf-stable snacks are a great thing to toss in a purse or backpack.
Like water bottles, food cannot be stored in glass containers.
The only exception is small baby food jars.
Another rule: Food cant have pungent odors.
So leave your fermented fish and kimchi at home.
Can You Bring a Cooler Into Disney World?
This is how my family did lunches at Disney growing up.
It kept costs down for a family of four and prevented snacks from turning into melted goo.
Loose pack and dry ice arent allowed, but reusable ice packs are fine.
What Cutlery Is Allowed in Disney World?
But leave the knife at home.
All knives are prohibited and, yes, that includesreusable metal cutlery.
Are There Mini Fridges at Disney World?
Disney’s Baby Care Centers in each park are not able to accommodate bottles or food storage.
However, there are microwaves and a kitchenette area with a sink for use.
This is clutch if youre pumping or have medication that needs to be refrigerated.
