REVIEW: This Disney Snack Is Proof That New Isn't Always Better

Not all Disney World snacks are created equally. In fact, some even have a cult following (we’re looking at you, cheeseburger spring rolls).

So, when new versions of classic Disney World snacks come out, we feel it’s our job — our duty — to try them out and tell you everything you need to know (maybe because it actually IS our job here at DFB!). Over at Disney’s Hollywood Studios, a new lunch box tart has debuted and we’re checking it out!

We headed over to Woody’s Lunch Box at Disney’s Hollywood Studios to grab the brand new The Clawwww! Lunch Box Tart for $4.99. This is a key lime curd-filled pastry topped with marshmallow fondant, sugar candy, blue sprinkles, and purple crispy pearls. This sounds like it could be a winner… but was it?

The Clawwww! Lunch Box Tart

First of all, this might be one of the cutest lunch box tarts we’ve ever seen here — it looks like one of the green Aliens from Toy Story and we love it! But, that might be where our love for this treat ends. We really had to search for that key lime taste, which is usually pretty tart — but we didn’t get any of that here.

It was very, very sweet and we wish there had been more of that classic, tart key lime flavor. It was extremely subtle, and we mostly just tasted the pastry and sweetness from the marshmallow fondant along with the sugar from the key lime curd — which was more just like a sweet citrus curd without the sourness.

Like a little Green Alien

When we broke the tart open, we could hardly spot any real filling on the inside. This could have just been the one we got, but the ratio was definitely off here. If you’re a fan of the lunch box tarts at Woody’s, you might want to give this one a try just for fun — but ultimately, we think it’s probably something we’d recommend skipping.
