More Disney Food That Is Good For You

Today we've got another look as some more Disney branded food items that are coming your way. Disney has been licencing their characters for use on food and beverage items since the 1930's. Mickey and Donald have been used to sell everything from baby food to coffee. During World War II you could find over 200 different Donald Duck products on grocery shelves across the country. (Of those 200, only Donald Duck brand Orange Juice still lives on today.) Recently Disney announced that they would start eliminating trans fats from the food they serve in their parks and the products which they licence their characters too. Yesterday we showed you some new breakfast offerings, here we have a look at some more goodies hitting the shelves. One way to look at it is more nutritional options for kids, I look at it as a way to buy more Mickey Mouse stuff!

Above you'll see some apples from Disney Farms. (You may remember an earlier post about Disney Farms Cars Grapes) I'm quite sure when I get my hands on a box of those, I won't be throwing away the box anytime soon. I guess Nemo is a good choice for Disney's drinking water, it just seems odd to have the words "Purified Drinking Water" next to a picture of two dirty tropical fish swimming in water!? However the Mickey ravioli's are a nice touch. They are shaped like Mickey's head and any food that you can shape into Mickey's head should be sold as such!

Below are more items you'll see on the shelves soon. Even a Disney character can't make oatmeal exciting in my book!
