Disney Launches Lightsaber Churros For Star Wars Day

When it comes to Disney, there’s no shortage of excitement and fun. That’s certainly the case with the announcement of this year’s May the 4th Foodie Guide. If you’re unaware, or rep team Trekkie over Jedi, May the 4th is a day that celebrates the mega movie franchise that is Star Wars. Simply put, it’s a pun for the franchise’s most famous line, “May the force be with you.” 

The entire Disney galaxy will be joining in on the celebration. That includes Disney Parks worldwide with Disneyland Resort, Walt Disney World Resort, and Disneyland Paris. Along with Star Wars-centric activities, Disney’s lineup of food offerings are sure to put you in tune with the force. From savory stars to sweet sabers, you and your stomach will be satisfied.

To get you excited for the festivities, we’ve put together a list of highlights from this year’s May the 4th Foodie Guide. Thanks to Disney, you won’t have to travel to a galaxy far, far away to try these delicious eats.
