If you’ve followed Disney Food Blog for a while, you probably know how much we love the Gourmet Popcorn Stand in Epcot’s Future World.
Gourmet Popcorn Stand
Well, friends, they have introduced a BRAND NEW Rainbow Popcorn and we couldn’t wait to check it out!
Now, when we were there, the Sour Cream and Chive flavor was still listed, but Rainbow Popcorn has taken its place for the time being.

The Rainbow Popcorn had more of a kettle corn texture, but it didn’t taste like kettle corn. The colored coating reminded us a bit of the icing from Festival of the Arts’ Paintbrush Churros — it looked pretty but had very little flavor. After several bites, the Popcorn tasted a bit like Froot Loops, but overall, it was very sticky and tasted like frosting.

Though it was very pretty, we personally prefer the regular flavors (Cheddar Cheese, Buffalo Bleu Cheese, and Sour Cream and Chive) from the Gourmet Popcorn Stand.

If you’d like to try the Rainbow Popcorn for yourself, you can do so for $6.00 outside the Imagination Pavilion. When we were there, we did not have the option to get it as a popcorn bucket refill. We’re not sure how long this will be available, so go ahead and grab it when you see it if you want to give it a try!

I purchased a bag of rainbow popcorn from Goofy’s Candy Company last week and had the same thought: it tastes like Fruit Loops. The bag had a picture of Joy from Inside Out, but the popcorn didn’t bring me much joy.
I’ll be skipping the gourmet popcorn stand for the time being unless the Sour Cream & Chive is back by October. This doesn’t sound appealing to me at all. There are already so many sweet snacks so it’s a bummer they removed a savory snack for this.
