Casey’s Corner, a quick-service restaurant at Magic Kingdom, has updated its Featured Hot Dog for March. This month’s specialty is Irish-inspired and topped with corned beef, swiss cheese and sauerkraut with a wholegrain mustard sauce.
The previous month’s Featured Hot Dog was topped with Asian-style coleslaw, sweet chili sauce and crispy eggroll strips. Before that was a Hot Dog smothered in macaroni & cheese and bacon. The Featured Hot Dog rotates on a monthly basis and is available for $12.29.
What toppings are you hoping to see on the Featured Hot Dog in April?

Here at Chip and Co., we reported a few weeks ago that Walt Disney World has started offering a brand new PhotoPass experience in Magic Kingdom’s Fantasyland in celebration of the much-loved Disney film Tangled. This new PhotoPass opportunity recreates that whimsical scene in the film where Rapunzel and Flynn Rider watch a thousand lanterns being released in the night sky to honor the Princess’ birthday. The photo op allows guests to hold one of these iconic floating lanterns which will instantly make visitors feel like they are part of this delightful tale.
It was originally rumored that this dazzling new PhotoPass offering would only be available to visitors for a limited time only (March 15th was announced as the original closing date). However, we are hearing from several sources currently at Disney World that Cast Members are now saying that this photo op is here to stay.
Here is the official word from Disney:
This is a must-do for Tangled fans both young and old and for those trying to make the most out of their MemoryMaker package. The PhotoPass photographers offering this special shot can be found just outside of Rapunzel’s Tower which is located next to Its a Small World in Fantasyland. Guests should note however that this opportunity is weather permitting.

I absolutely love PIXAR movies, but UP is by far my favorite. Sure I cry like a baby during that opening montage, but I love it so much. Ellie’s Grape Soda Badge is one of those tokens that I adore the most. So of course I squealed with delight when I saw this Up Inspired Grape Soda Pin by fablefox on Etsy!
The Ellie Badge is a replica of the pin Ellie gives to Carl in the movie “Up”. These Ellie badges would make wonderful wedding or birthday party favors, cruise fish extender gifts, or simply a token of affection. Each Ellie badge comes exactly like you see in the photo, and is under $4 each! This pin has a working safety pin, and can be attached to anything you wish. I want an UP themed birthday party just so I can have these as favors now!
SUPRA, a lifestyle footwear and apparel brand born from skate, is excited to unveil the new SUPRA collection inspired by the upcoming live-action adaptation Disney film, Beauty and the Beast.
The Disney Beauty and the Beast collection by SUPRA draws inspiration from the iconic red rose through velvet and pantone red suede to introduce a modern and refined shoe inspired by Belle. A youthful hue of burgundy fits well for a kid’s shoe, while also appealing to mothers excited to match and coordinate with their children.
The Disney Beauty and the Beast Skytop by SUPRA is unveiled in an all black sole, and black crushed velvet with beautiful contrast embroidery of regal gold lace details. The Rococo era is highlighted through gold embroidery and ornate fabrics to pay homage to the film’s history.
“We are thrilled to be a part of such an iconic movie like Disney’s Beauty and the Beast,” says Cape Capener, Brand President at SUPRA. “Our Disney and SUPRA footwear collaboration is inspired by the magical world of princess Belle and SUPRA’s street and skate lifestyle that creatively come together to produce amazing footwear with a great marketing story.”
Three unique themes, and two iconic SUPRA footwear styles will kick off the launch. The kid’s and women’s Skytop and Cubana styles are available on www.suprafootwear.com starting March 9. On March 15, it will launch with Finish Line and Macys, in stores and online. The kid’s Skytop and Cubana retail for $75 and $60 respectively, while the women’s Skytop will retail for $110 and the Cubana will retail for $75. The men’s Cuba, priced at $70, will release in April.
Looks like it’s getting a bit chilly again, luckily it gives me an excuse to rock cozy Disney socks. I found these Live Action Beauty and The Beast Socks, and couldn’t believe it! They are cozy socks, plus they are also merchandise for the newest live action Disney movie coming out!
This set comes with 5 ankle socks in the Yellow, Blue and Red motif that surround the film. The likeness of Emma as Belle is pretty spot on, and I love the enchanted rose line design behind her. My favorite pair is the Blue pair with the Enchanted Rose. I love the deep jewel toned blue with thorny rose vine designs, with the pop of ruby red for the main rose. Now I just need to find a set of Belle pajamas in my size to pair with them! I think they’d be perfect for a winter day in with a good book and a warm beverage!
Disney is on the hunt for the next Jasmine and Aladdin. Is it you?
The Guy Ritchie-directed live-action adaptation of the classic animated feature has sent out a casting notice calling for Middle Eastern actors in the 18 to 25 age range to audition for its leads, The Hollywood Reporter has confirmed.
“Aladdin” is set to be a movie-musical, so the notice reads “must be able to sing” and says dancing experience is “a plus.” Shooting will take place over an approximate six-month period, from July 2017 to January 2018, in the U.K., with rehearsals beginning in April.
Scott Weinger and Linda Larkin voiced Aladdin and Jasmine in the 1992 animated feature, which follows a street-wise youth who tries to woo a princess and defeat an evil sorcerer after he stumbles upon a magic lamp and is granted three wishes by a genie trapped trapped inside.
Big Fish writer John August penned the screenplay for the feature, which is being produced by Dan Lin via his Lin Pictures banner, with Jonathan Eirich executive producing.
Recently, Disney had a similar casting call for the leads in the live-action Mulan remake, asking that those who audition speak “fluent English and Mandarin Chinese.” The casting notice was posted on Twitter earlier on Thursday.
Disney’s live-action adaptation of Beauty and the Beast debuts next week! In honor of this highly anticipated film, Disney is releasing new Beauty and the Beast themed-updates across its digital offerings this week.
The new updates, inspired by the tale as old as time, will be in some of Disney’s most popular apps, including:
Disney Crossy Road – March 9: Beauty and the Beast figurines and worlds inspired by the highly-anticipated live-action film launch in the game.
Disney Story Central – March 9: Beauty and the Beast enchants the largest collection of Disney stories with new tales, including The Enchantment, World of Reading: Beauty and the Beast, and more.
Disney Emoji Blitz – March 17 – 24: New Beauty and the Beast Item Cards will be added, featuring Belle’s Cottage, The Beast’s Magic Mirror, Belle’s Fountain, and more. Beauty and the Beast emojis inspired by the animated classic will also be added, including Lumiere, Cogsworth, and Mrs. Potts.
Disney Jigsaw – March 17: A new Beauty and the Beast puzzle pack is now available.
Color by Disney – February 19: New Beauty and the Beast coloring pages invite artists to bring the enchanted tale to life.

Finally, a standalone Beauty and the Beast mobile game is in development and expected to launch this summer!
Disney’s newest water park attraction Miss Adventure Falls officially opens today at the Typhoon Lagoon Water Park.
Miss Adventure Falls is a new family raft attraction taking guests of all ages a fast-paced waterslide journey at Disney’s Typhoon Lagoon Water Park.
Miss Adventure Falls tells the story of Captain Mary Oceaneer, a treasure-hunter whose collection and ship now reside here after a rogue typhoon swept them to shore.
Guests are transported to the top of the slide by the attraction’s conveyor belt, a first for a water attraction in Florida.
Duncan, Captain Mary’s diving partner and parrot, who is also the first Audio-Animatronic at Disney’s Water Parks.
Here are some more photos from Disney’s newest water-park attraction!
Typhoon Lagoon is one of two themed water parks at Walt Disney World Resort in Florida.
Be Our Guest is the ultimate theme in Disney home entertaining in my opinion! Using coasters are a great way to not only protect your furniture surfaces, but to add extra Disney themes as well! These Beauty and the Beast Coasters by HeighHoGrotto are beautiful, and mimic the stained glass story boards from the original movie.
This is a handmade set of four Beauty and the Beast ‘Stained Glass’ Coasters. The coasters are waterproof and won’t warp when a hot drink is placed on them. They are made from ceramic and have felt on the bottoms to prevent scratches on your surfaces. I love that they are heavy duty, and not flimsy plastic. I like my Disney themed items to last so I can use them over and over again! If you’re looking for other Disney themes, they have many other character designs available too!
Here’s another empowering clip from Disney’s Live Action “Beauty and the Beast.” In this video we get a behind-the-scenes look at Emma Watson as Belle.
Zachary Levi who many of you know as Flynn Rider from Disney’s Tangled franchise was on Conan O’Brien this week where he leveled some very serious accusations against one of Disneyland and Disney World’s much-loved snack – the legendary Turkey Leg.
This origins of this famed snack have long been the stuff of speculation due namely to its sheer size, leading to rumors that it doesn’t come from turkeys but rather other large birds. During his interview, Levi claimed that he had friends that worked at Disneyland who confirmed that the legs were in fact Emu. Check out his clip here:
However, Disney insiders were quick to jump in and refute these claims. According to enewsonline.com Robert Adams, executive chef at Walt Disney World’s Magic Kingdom released the following statement “We hear that all the time. They’re real turkeys. It’s what they are.”
Next time you’re at Disneyland or Walt Disney World be sure to try them out for yourself and make up your own mind. However, we here at Chip and Co have to agree with the following:
Also don’t miss Zachary Levi who will reprise his role as Flynn Rider along with Mandy Moore in “Tangled the Series” which made it’s début on the Disney Channel yesterday (March 10, 2017).
