Best snacks in WDW?

What are some of your favorite snack items -- cookies, pretzels, cupcakes, corn dogs, candy, etc -- at WDW? And where can you find them?

We have friends going over Christmas and I'd love to give them your suggestions.

I muchlove the funnel cakes that they sell in a few locations in WDW but the one we usually purchase from is the one in front of American Adventure in Epcot. We love to grab one while waiting for Illuminations which we watch from the small stone benches along the fence in front of the Japanese Pavillion.To us it is the best location for viewing Illuminations but sshhhh, don't tell anyone or we wont be able to get a seat.

We often avoid snacks because we're so full from all the meals we plan. There are some killer cupcakes that we have to partake in though.

Oh goodness..this question might be easier to answer if it were Which snacks do you hate in WDW?

Anyway my very favorites-I-must-Have-every-time-we-go are....
Dole Whip
Mickey Rice Krispy Treat
French fries, but that doesn't count because I have a French Fry problem..I'm in a 12 step program
Cupcakes..from anywhere
Grey Goose Slush..oh wait that's not food..

I have 0% doubt I would HAVE to get that if I saw it! I love all things pumpkin. Caitie would tell me I'm crazy.

Dole Whip is definitely on my list of must gets, along with the peach tea slushee non-food snack thing in China. So yum.

Bella, I think we were separated at birth. I have the same French Fry problem. I was raised on them from ages 8 - 32. If I were to be stranded on a desert island for a year, I would want French Fries. In college I took a pottery class and was told to make something that "people would see and think of you". I made a free-form thing with french fries on top. Mom kept it for 30 years. That's love! But I digress.....

My favs are:
- Mickey Ice Cream Sandwich
- Mickey Rice Krispy (non-dipped)
- Wetzels Pretzels in DTD (I know, but I love them!)
- Make-your-own creation at Goofy's Candy Co.

And send them into Ghirardelli's in DTD for their free chocolate square!

My favorite treats in the parks are:

Pocky from Japan (more widely available throughout the US now, but I only get it there for some reason)

Carrot Cake Cookie from Writer's Stop

Dole Whip (classic...and healthy!)

Strawberry Shortcake from Sunshine Seasons

chili cheese fries from Pecos Bill
