Disney4me Posted January 6 Report Share Posted January 6 Another day, another new Disney World snack! Okay, okay, technically this snack isn’t exclusive to Disney World, but we’re excited about it all the same. Main Street Bakery in Magic Kingdom Disney World is home to several different Starbucks locations (though you may find them under different names in the parks!) and that means when new snacks come to Starbucks, they come to Disney World too! A new vegan snack has rolled out and we’re spilling everything you need to know about it in this review. Another day, another new Disney World snack to check out! We headed over to Main Street Bakery at Magic Kingdom — the Starbucks location in this park — to try the new vegan Spicy Falafel Pocket for $4.95. The description on the Starbucks website for this item says it’s made with “Smashed falafel, creamy hummus, roasted red bell peppers, pickled onions and a spicy herb sauce wrapped inside a toasted lavash flatbread.” Vegan Spicy Falafel Pocket Sounds good, right? Here’s the thing, though. When you order this wrap at Disney Starbucks locations, it won’t come with the “spicy herb sauce.” The Cast Member advised us that because of the official name of the sauce, it wasn’t able to be served at Disney World. This sort of made us scratch our heads — because why would that be the case? Upon further investigation, it appears the sandwich is supposed to be made with a chipotle almond dip made by Bitchin’ Sauce, and apparently, Disney Cast Members aren’t allowed to say it or show it to anyone if it were to be in the allergy books — so they omitted it altogether. A decent stretch Funny story aside, we thought this was a very strange sandwich to be served without any kind of sauce or chutney on the side. We’re assuming the spicy aspect comes from the sauce we weren’t allowed to have, and that made us sad. The hot sauce packets they give out at Pecos Bill’s would have at least been something. The Cast Member who served it to us warned us it was on the dry side and gosh, they were not wrong. Inside filling without the sauce We did like the fact that the falafel was smashed and we didn’t have to bite through big dry balls of falafel, and the flavor of the falafel filling was very delicious — enough that we would order this again and maybe bring our own hot sauce packets. That’s a lot to ask of folks, though, and we find it odd they didn’t come up with something to substitute on their own, as this is not a fully realized dish. Even without the sauce, though, it was quite delicious — if a bit dry — and we’d get it again as a filling snack! We still enjoyed it WE KNOW – there are SO many great snacks at Disney World!
