ok, ok! where does Tess need to go next? 👇

[@Nataliemcook]

Disney Springs! Cookie dough truck. Huge slices of pizzas at Enzo’s. Great fries and burgers at Deluxe. Poutine. There’s so much yummy stuff there.

[@T3hXinro]

Seconding Disney Springs, it's amazing. Go to Beaches and Cream, be ridiculous with the Kitchen Sink Sundae.

[@miriamsurdin8491]

State Fairs!

[@BaileyAnnASMR]

Ok hear me out: Koreatown, Chinatown, etc. I know it’s not amusement parks as per usual but it’d be interesting to get more culture and strange eats integrated into these videos and I’m sure Tess would have superior commentary!

[@petreajohnson-turner5671]

I know she already did Harry Potter world but the rest of universal would be cool

[@shannonmellino8664]

I feel like Vanellope Von Schweetz fits you better then Belle. Sass level wise.

[@aisling_90]

Shannon Mellino YES, the sasssssss 😎👌🏽

[@nadd1241]

Yup

[@endlessly8]

Yes! 🍭

[@gibblybutterfly427]

Omg YASSSSS

[@rollergirl2757]

Or the Disney fairy Vivain the purple fairy

[@TheHilltopperNation]

I feel like Disney’s prices for their foods are so inconsistent. Like it’ll be $6 for 3 fried dumplings and then $8.50 for some chili on some Fritos then it’ll be $5 for a huuuuge cake or pastry. Like that so weirdly priced

[@lildancingymnast]

Yes! but I also think its based on if its fresh made or already made and packaged.

[@PixelatedMimikyu]

It depends on the ingredients used and how fresh it is. Im sure there are more factors, but these are the main things that are considered when pricing items. It’s not weird at all.

[@nairbpenguinlizard]

Ingredients to make all those things are completely different and different price ranges

[@Janixsa]

JabTrill if your a Floridan (like me) then you would still buy It

[@gabrielletornow4857]

Disney is also so huge that tax rates change half way through, so pretzels, for example, are sold for two different prices depending on which park your in. It’s bc it’s within 2 different counties.

[@stacischuhmann]

The “fear/hatred of birds” theme is strong and hilarious.

[@tesskoman3646]

Staci Schuhmann look at them! they’re terrifying!

[@TripNWithRed]

Super funny.

[@Alysscka]

Birds are absolutely terrifying

[@nerak80]

Those birds are exactly why I do not eat at flame tree BBQ!

[@randomviewer5463]

OMG love the idea. Great thinking!

[@hannagonzalez7729]

Idk last few years its been all the same stuff just piled with halloween color frosting

[@ebbsislove93]

She always looks likes she’s on the verge of passing out from heat stroke. Give her some water! 😂

[@daveschwartz5893]

Her face is beat ass red at the end of the video.

[@kat-fr7nr]

Animal kingdom out of all the Disney parks always feels like hell compared to the other parks idk why

[@idontwantmonoplz]

• i feel like maybe cause of the animals and the water makes it feel more humid? I’m not sure but I definitely thought I was the only one who thought that lol

[@commentcopbadge6665]

Dave Schwartz Have you ever spent the whole day at a theme park in the middle of summer? Plus she's drinking alcohol. ANd she's... -white.- pale LOL! I'd look beet red too after a day of that and I'm black. LOL!!!!

[@LokeshThakur]

Well the alcohol certainly isnt helping her hydrate

Yall need to appreciate the childless millennial reference to that mom rant that went viral, at the start. 🤣

[@someguywithanemail9140]

[@mariababcock6794]

I love her videos I'm just afraid she will collapse any minute from heat exhaustion she looks sick by the end of each video

[@tesskoman3646]

Maria Babcock lol well

[@usasstar]

She did her cheeks got so darker in each video

[@carlycrays2831]

It's super hot there and she's eating a ton og hot, filling food. I would be throwing up at that point.

[@usasstar]

Carly Crays me too I can't eat that much water or some ice cream once but not every 1/2 hour I would die

[@mariamalone7135]

Some people just don't handle the heat well. It's usually fair-skinned people like Tess. I'm the same exact way when I'm in a hot environment. This is why I live up north!

[@DirigiblePlum]

"It's your favourite childless millennial, back in Disneyworld" The shaaaaade! 😂

[@AM-ru5lh]

I love that the pizza and garlic knots were grossly over priced and everything else seemed reasonable lol

[@AM-ru5lh]

JK P Thats a little better, but it still looks like its about the size of a $5 personal pan pizza at Pizza Hut. But I thought the irony was the cheapest to make was the item that seemed over priced. 😂

[@joshwhipkey9957]

I've had those pizza and it's a deep dish for sure, defently for 2 people to share and filled me till we had a really late dinner at hotel(we cooked for ourselves), so it was about 5$ a person to eat at Disney.... witch is unheard of.... then again we bring our own water bottles so we don't pay for drinks

[@taylorharvey6091]

Anna New Old Fashioned the garlic knots you can have as a snack credit tho too

[@VillPom]

The items that kids always want

[@jessicafrith4341]

Except the $15 margarita. Lol

[@birdiekawaii9073]

It’s my day off. It’s cold. It’s raining. I don’t have the energy to cook. And here comes Tess. Eating her weight at an amusement park. Perfection. The amount of love that I have for you Tess might boarder on creepy. But I friggin love these videos! 💖

[@anairisfigueroa558]

See, this the kind of person I want with me at Disney. Just to eat a shit ton of food and worry about the costs later.

[@stagetopage]

I see Tess. I click. Think I've commented QUEEN on every one of Tess' Delish videos...😂

[@britinmadrid]

Ditto - she's fun, funny and I'm right behind you in the clicking queue.

[@ChelseaLupkin]

The rest of the Delish team likes to read the comments out loud for her across the floor, so it’s much appreciated 😂

[@ampink81ify]

“honestly, good for me, and aren’t you jealous” way to call me out directly 😂

asking the bird if he was real, then yelling "not today satan!" at him and then saying "oh my god he told all his friends" was deadass the funniest thing

[@Jeroenbdesign]

I say let's do a Delish international food tour! Disneyland Paris, Disney Paris studios etc. Great video again btw! :)

[@kaylagarman]

Jeroen Boelhouwer i went to Disney land Paris and I was soooo upset it’s like a watered down disneyland. Hardly any interesting food the only Mickey shapes food we could find was a marshmallow

[@yeehaw4307]

@@kaylagarman I think its because we don't need everything to be in your face, and Disneyland in Paris matches how most themeparks are in Europe, which is not a sensory overload (ive been to Epcot, Animal Kingdom etc) and it's a lot, and everything is overtly sweet.

[@senoritatorres]

I heard Disney Japan is amazing

[@smmke]

“where’s my rum, I want my rum” 😂😂😂

[@officialnikkosantos7495]

Absolutely just adore this woman

[@crystalwarelk]

Animal Kingdom is also THE hottest of the Disney theme parks. I legit refuse to go there if it’s above 82 because it will feel like 100+ no matter what.

[@nogahsun257]

Crystal Elkins I just went last week legit passed out and needed medical

[@taylorharvey6091]

Crystal Elkins there’s a giant water ride and also stay hydrated otherwise you’ll pass out lmao

[@crystalwarelk]

Nogah Sun damn. I’m sorry. Luckily Disney’s medical center is pretty awesome. There’s one in every park if you ever need. I have a chronic condition, so I’ve legit used it many times, just to go lie down for a bit and rest.

[@crystalwarelk]

Taylor Harvey oh always! We’re locals so it’s a lot easier as well since we don’t feel the need to do all the things every single visit.

[@taylorharvey6091]

Crystal Elkins that’s a good thing for you guys then! it’s prolly easier for you guys to know how to beat the heat rather than someone who doesn’t visit florida often!

[@julianahenrygarcia4805]

We need Tess back To go to the parks and Disney Springs and all the festivals.
