Reviews and tips for eating vegan in Walt Disney World. Lists of all vegan options split up by Magic Kingdom, Epcot, Animal Kingdom, Hollywood Studios, Disney Springs, and resorts.
We’re often asked about vegan candies and snacks that you can find in the shops in World Showcase in Epcot. We’re not big candy people so we never really checked until now. So let’s take a trip around World Showcase Lagoon and see what vegan items we find in each pavilion. Disclaimer: We have not have found EVERYTHING as there are so many items in each pavilion and many have sticker labels over the ingredient lists (whyyy!). Additionally, some of these items contain mono and diglycerides, which can be from non-vegan sources. Lastly, some items contain palm oil, which we know some vegans avoid. Everything found is from November 2018. Always check ingredients for yourself.
Let’s start in Mexico and head counter-clockwise because that’s our preference when in World Showcase! (But really, do you go clockwise or counter-clockwise?)
Mexico
The Mexico Pavilion was hard to find items as many of the labels were covered.

Germany
The only pavilion we have ever actually picked up chocolates is from Germany as we love the brandy filled chocolates they sell. They have been selling candy that is blatantly vegan for a few months now too.

America
The America Pavilion has no snacks in the shop.
Japan
Japan has the biggest selection of snacks in all of World Showcased. For vegans there is a wide variety of snacks from hard candies, wasabi snacks, and instant ramen. To note about the ramen, there were a few other flavors that appeared vegan but are Tonkotsu flavored, which is typically a pork broth. You can find more info about the ramen we found here.

This was all we found when looking, remember to always check the ingredients yourself as things can absolutely change. Have you had any of these? What’s your favorite? Tell us in the comments!
Back in 2014 I created Vegan Disney World after going to Walt Disney World several times and finding no resource for vegan options. Corey and I began this blog from our trips and have now moved closer to the mouse to eat around the parks on a weekly basis. Since the blog started we have cruised on Disney Cruise Line, gone to Tokyo Disneyland and to Disneyland in California!
