Moving to the country, gonna eat a lot of peaches

[@tdrexplorer]

I knew someone would know the song!

[@michellexlawless]

Peaches come from a can they were put there by a man

[@domstay.b]

i be watching these videos like imma go to japan 😭 maybe one day but always so entertaining to watch, i live this disney life through you 🫶🏻

[@tdrexplorer]

I hope you get to visit one day

[@traciemegumishorts]

The designs for the 40th are all so CUTE 😭

[@tdrexplorer]

If anything, they're always on point with the design.

[@lumenue]

I really like the changes you're making with the editing! The "Editor Asides" style of additional captioning is really popular for a reason and I think it perfectly fits your channel style and content! Not just exploring parks, but exploring with your content too - we love to see it!

[@tdrexplorer]

Thank you! I gave myself extra time to be able to add these fun asides. When I'm editing I'm always calling myself out, so I thought to take the time and add them to the screen.

[@brclyn]

@@tdrexplorer They work perfectly.

[@greggers008]

We thought you were on the toilet at the beginning of your ad 😂

[@brclyn]

@@greggers008 😂 have to admit, it took me a second look as well.

[@sparkly1707]

Where the point of hom saying hefty when he csn use heavy instead unless that's the American Canadian way of saying it

[@brclyn]

Another wonderful video. All the food looks great, but your commentary, and now the printed "asides" are the real treat.

[@tdrexplorer]

Thank you! I wanted to put down my thoughts when I'm editing onto the screen to share it with all of you, haha. I'm glad you're enjoying it

[@lavendermagic84]

I think the coolest thing for me was the individually packaged slice of pizza. It looks like it even comes with a little handle so you can carry it around with you, instead of holding it like a tray as you walk. Pretty awesome!

[@nyatsuki8255]

The baby who’s saying goodbye to everyone is so cute ☺️ 14:21

[@melissadunton3534]

17:52 You keep buying churros, you’re so optimistic. 😃 *Every time you get a churro you say…. “Eh, it’s a churro* I laugh every time too! ✌🏻💕😃

[@valentinaajili1649]

Aaaaaa... Your boys with you 😂😂😂 good idea!! 💯

[@tdrexplorer]

They eat the crumbs that fall, hahah.

[@ashgarnermeow]

I couldn’t eat all the specialty foods because it was so busy when I went, but I did get the lunch bag at New York Deli in Disney Sea! Great video, makes me want to go back 😻

[@danielegglord]

I love the Mickey-Burger ears!

[@kayel4487]

Chip & Dale are cute hanging out of your shoulder bag!

[@tdrexplorer]

It's my favourite, I got it from Hong Kong Disneyland a few weeks ago.

[@necroticdemonart]

I’m always jealous of you when ever you get to go to any Disney place

[@juliehalpern-cordell2244]

Your comedy was on point in this video! Loved it!

[@alinekaorisiqueira5661]

Omg I love passion fruit seeds!! Here in Brazil we call it Maracujá and those seeds are a MUST ❤

[@LunarMothLily]

pineapple bbq chicken pizza yes but I love looking at the plates and the stuff you can get.

[@tdrexplorer]

The plates are so well done

[@plasticman2k]

Thanks Chris! Looking forward to Disney sea too ❤

[@19800910]

I did try the Apple tea soda at Hook's Galley, you are onto something there Chris! However I think it's counter productive for me to start a new "taste" habit that I can only find at Tokoy Disneyland when I live in Berlin Germany :)

[@tdrexplorer]

I've been touting the glory that is Apple Tea Soda since 2013! I've never loved a drink more, I can't put my finger on why but I'm not going to question it.

[@ChronosQ]

Corn is amazing

[@beckydunmall1383]

Been looking forward to this video! Can't wait to watch this later when I'm eating dinner

[@tdrexplorer]

Thank you, Becky! Always best to watch while eating because it'll make you hungry, haha.

[@Artractive_]

Wow disneyland looks like so much fun 😩🥺 I hope to be able to go someday

[@tdrexplorer]

I hope you can visit one day too!

[@lornaduigan8920]

Elderflower drink was really nice 👍🏻 and yes! 🙌🏻 The ears of the bun were awesome but not so much the rest.

[@tdrexplorer]

I wanted the whole bun to be whatever was in the ears, haha.

[@robertclarke1266]

Man I love your Disney Videos!

[@tdrexplorer]

Thank you, Robert!

[@ViolenziaDomestica]

0:53 we can finally see the camera operator 😂❤ unless they’ve been featured in other videos and I’ve missed them 😂 I love the lunch bag and elderflower is sooooo delicious ❤

[@tdrexplorer]

I'm making good use of the lunch bag!

[@abbylark3550]

Love your videos so much! Favorite part of my day ❤

[@tamara8349]

Wow, that popcorn bucket is so cool! Love your vlogs.

[@katrinapoon1986]

Thank you!!

[@sirose]

Just also wanted to chime I love the new editing! I’ll have to brush up on your guidebook before I go mid May. ☺️

[@angienuelle]

I wanted the anniversary plate and cup so bad, but I'm very allergic to orange, so couldn't justify paying for a dessert I couldn't eat. I did get the lunch bag though! And I was also surprised that the Mickey bun had different filling in the ears!

[@hey_nanabanana]

I am visiting in 2 days and this is making me so excited!

[@ohmygodbecky86]

I love your videos!! Do you have any tips for pescatarians visiting Tokyo Disneyland and Disney Sea? We purchased your guide but are getting nervous about our up coming trip! Thank you for everything you do!!

[@Q8skynight]

We need more information about vegetarian food 😊

[@anuro3123]

I'm a Disney mug addict too Chris 😅... No shame in the game... When it gets to bee too much, just eliminate some of the older ones that you like less than some of the newer ones... if you do that then you can keep getting new ones you like and you dont have to rent a new apartment to hold all of it😂... Anyways great coverage of all the 40th food... That 40th popcorn bucket is awesome! Maybe gonna have to pick that up next time😁... Love the vid Chris... Keep being the real person that you are...

[@yoshikohiggins8449]

Love your videos with loads of useful info and tips! Could you explain about Duffy and all his friends in one of your videos sometime? I read it'll be on Disney+ but haven't seen it 😶

[@LeBasfondMusic]

Okay, but I'm Mexican/ Native, and I will never say no to corn, this sounds like a dream 😅

[@wildspirit6785]

I love your mickey ears!!!

[@tdrexplorer]

Thank you!

[@TheMm27]

Hi Chris =) Thanks for your videos, thanks to you I can plan my trip next month =) I'm French so I am curious... have you ever been to Disneyland Paris ? It would be so cute to see your reactions in "my" park =)

[@erikagholston6610]

I love pineapple on pizza.

[@LorettaCorona]

hi Chris you really ate a lot but everything looked so good I will recommend my frond the meal 🦖

[@tdrexplorer]

Thank you for always watching, Loretta!

[@BankruptSpidey]

That 11$ meal with the bag would’ve been 30+ in the US 😂 everything there is so reasonably priced.

[@pams3887]

I love the flavour of passionfruit, but I hate the seeds 😂 Will you do a 40th anniversary food tour of Disney Sea?

[@bulbaliza5101]

Love the chip n dale plushies! Are they in the park available now?

[@sparkly1707]

It's cream cheese Chris 😅😂😂😂

[@jackylast]

Hi Chris, thanks for your very informative videos! Which restaurants sell your highly recommended apple tea soda? Do most of them sell it? Or only one or two?

[@patriciamariasoares]

Can’t wait to go in 2024 after having to cancel in 2020 due to COVID!

[@thorman3228]

Great video Chris! Just wondering, how do you ask for the popcorn voucher if you don’t speak Japanese? Is there a simple way to ask for this?

[@thehapagirl92]

I didn’t know that at Tokyo Disney the popcorn carts don’t all sell the same flavors.

[@tdrexplorer]

There's so many flavours!

[@lallain7016]

We don't want the corn 🤣😂 (I agree)

[@tdrexplorer]

The bane of my existence, haha!

[@libby_m_nehring]

Love the video!! We just purchased the TDR explorer guide, for a trip in late May … but the QR codes don’t work for some reason, links are “forbidden”. How do we resolve that? Thanks!

[@bretto3903]

Do you ever get recognized by the employees for the amount of times you have been there😂

[@miyoshifw27]

I went there on July 15th - 3 weeks ago, while waiting for afternoon parade I stopped by at Captain Hook's Galley. I saw the food showcase in front and I thought I don't need those 'silly and cute' souvenirs so I just bought all 3 kinda pizzas: Seafood, Tandori Chicken and my favorite Bacon & Pineapple pizza Now after watching this video I regret myself for being a cheap midlife dude for not getting those two gummy cases Peace from Tochigi PS: I also bought baked cheese potato... twice because it's so good PSs: Pineapple pizza is the best, especially the one in Costco (they serve it during summertime which is now)

[@karenadie1467]

You are too adorable in those ears 🍔❤

[@tdrexplorer]

These ears were the best purchase from Tokyo Disney!

[@Laura_Darkspear]

I love you but I’m on team pineapple on pizza haha! 😆

[@PNW980]

Love your channel! I noticed that with some of the drinks at Tokyo Disney they don’t fill it up to the top…is that the norm? Thanks!

[@tdrexplorer]

I think you're referring to fountain drinks? It's something that's done in a lot of places, not just Tokyo Disney.

[@MaryamRainwater]

I am going in a month! I love watching the different taste testing you do at the parks, but am so curious as to where you put all that trash! Does tokyo disney have any bins or is it like the rest of Japan?

[@dylanbarracks3509]

Just curious, but did they discontinue the Pizza Spring Rolls? I checked the website and they only list the egg and shrimp one for sale.

[@CcCc-dq3dw]

I like your videos...and I like pineapple on my pizza. Not sure about corn on pizza.

Love pineapple on pizza. 😝

Im a Hawaiian from Hawaii and pineapple is a big NO on pizza just saying😂

[@MidwestMouseketeers]

We've been pronouncing Ramune wrong! We've been saying "ra-moon". I'm happy to correct us to now say ra-moon-ey

[@tdrexplorer]

I can understand pronouncing it "ra-moon", I would have too. I'm glad you were able to learn something today besides just seeing me stuff my face, haha. Thank you for watching!

[@shannonweller4120]

Not sure if anyone has asked you in the comments yet but do you the packaging from the food you get when it is there anniversary as always wondered plus love your channel ❤

[@tdrexplorer]

I don't keep the packaging from the food. Thank you for watching, Shannon!

[@kylekeller3398]

I wonder if Tokyo Disneyland serves chicken tenders? 🤔

[@multidayticket]

First visited Japan in 1993 and found corn on my pizza. 30 years later… still not a fan.

[@Undrave]

Sucks that the anniversary is going 'till 2024 but the food all goes away by mid summer! What gives?! I hope they're replacing them with more seasonal foods then.

[@benrothman2055]

The drinks are so small with the meals. It wouldn’t be enough to quench my thirst. Do the restaurants have tap water available to drink? What do people do to get enough hydration?

[@smol-one]

It's my understanding that there are water fountains in the park and also vending machines with drinks in them. And I don't know about this specific park, but I know in Florida you can bring your own food and drinks into the park.

[@tdrexplorer]

Most restaurants have water stations with cups (you don't ask for water at the counter). There are vending machines and drink carts throughout the parks too. There's no shortage of ways to stay hydrated.

[@danielledaniel1900]

I dont like pineapple on pizza. The flavors clash to much

[@tdrexplorer]

Thank you!!! I love pineapple on it's own but not on my cheesy pizza.

@@tdrexplorer pineapple is good paired with grilled meats but pizza. Pineapple and pizza sauce don't work well together
