REVIEW: There’s a HEATED Churro Battle Happening in Disney World, and a New Competitor Just Entered the Ring

By Jordan-Paige Sudduth Leave a Comment

It’s no secret among Disney snack fans that the Orlando theme parks aren’t exactly known for their top-quality churros. Need we remind you of the Worms ‘n Dirt Churro?

Disneyland, on the other hand, is very much known for its iconic churros. Disney World churros often fall extremely flat and can never seem to achieve that same level of deliciousness. But every time Disney World comes out with a new churro, we ask ourselves if it’ll live up to our West Coast expectations, even though we expect to be disappointed. This time, we headed over to Animal Kingdom to try the new holiday churro and…well…we had such high hopes.

Over at Eight Spoon Cafe, you can grab the S’mores Churro for $7.99! This is a churro rolled in a Chocolate and Sugar Mix topped with Whipped Cream, Graham Crackers, and Chocolate Chips served with Whipped Cream and Marshmallow Topping.

The toppings here were delicious, we won’t lie, especially the marshmallow fluff they give you for dipping. However, the churro was, as unfortunately expected, stale and so disappointing; it almost had that weird squeakiness you experience when you chew something stale, and we did not enjoy that texture. It was a little cardboard-y. But hey, maybe we got one that had been sitting out for a while — you might get lucky and end up with a fresh churro!

The marshmallow fluff is not enough to save this

Were we surprised? Not necessarily, which is unfortunate, but we’re still holding out hope that the day will come when we get better churros in Disney World. Better luck next time, Disney!
