Harambe Fruit Market

Nots let fool ourselves. It's a food stand at Disney. Let's not pretend that this is some independent company that decided to rent space to sell to the public. $10 for a hot dog and a bag of chips, $6 for a 16oz apple juice $4 for a 20oz Dasani then fighting to look for a seat in the sweltering heat. Yeah felt like I was literally in Africa.

When the kids and wife went on a ride. I ate 2 of the corn on the Cobb. Delicious. I never told them.

I was so excited to visit this snack stand at Animal Kingdom after having grilled corn during our last trip in December 2021. Unfortunately as of September 2024, the ears of corn are no longer grilled at the stand but left in foil in warmers from being cooked off-site earlier in the day. It doesn’t taste as fresh, as grilled, or as flavorful as I remember. I still recommend the corn as a better-for-you, good value midday snack but am very disappointed in the direction Disney went in terms of quality and freshness.

It is not very special. It is a small cart with some fruit, sodas, corn and pretzels. I would recommend getting a drink from a fridge found in one of the stores. The drinks in this cart just sit in the hot sun with ice poured around them. Like everything at Disney, it is expensive for what you get.

They changed how they make the corn and they put almost no seasoning on the corn. Basically just corn. I will avoid this snack for future trips. What a shame. Shame on the corporate suit that changed this to save a dime. I hope your bonus is worth the failure of this product.

Average Disney snack food in Animal Kingdom. Tried the Mickey Pretzel with cheese sauce. The Mickey pretzel looked cute but it was hard, dry, and oversalted with average flavour. The cheese sauce came in those plastic sealed cups that are shelf stable and cold. Would be better if they used higher quality warm nacho cheese and a softer pretzel similar to Auntie Ann’s or Mr. Pretzels. 🥨

Get the grilled corn here. It's excellent. Also a nice stop to grab a bottle of water and some fruit to snack on if you're feeling a bit packing. Located inside the Animal Kingdom park at Walt Disney World.

The spice blend has cinnamon which makes it too sweet for me, ask them to hold it.
