    I traveled to Disney world a few years ago with my Grandmother, who tried to bring in some snacks and was had to throw them away at the gate. I'm going back with my toddler in a few weeks, and I was wondering if I'll be able to bring in snacks for her?

    I am very surprised to hear about your experience with your grandmother. I have been a very frequent Disney visitor for over a decade and have never had any problems bringing food into the parks.

    You are welcome to bring snacks and beverages with you into the parks. I have done this myself many times. When my kids were smaller and had very specific preferences, I always brought bags of their favorite snacks with me into the parks. Even now I generally bring a bottle of water from the hotel with me into the parks.

    There are very few restrictions on bringing food into the theme parks. Many people bring full meals of sandwiches and fruit with them into the Disney parks. However, you cannot bring glass containers with you (other than baby food jars, which are acceptable.) You also cannot bring large coolers, coolers with wheels or alcoholic beverages into the parks. As long as you avoid these items, you'll be fine.

    Have a great trip!
