Eat This: Epcot Legacy Showplace at Epcot’s 2017 Food and Wine Festival

The old Odyssey building is home to food offerings of its own and some fabulous exhibits celebrating Epcot’s 35th anniversary at this year’s Food & Wine Festival.

If you don’t know where the Odyssey building is, you’ll find it on the walkway/bridges running from Future World East into World Showcase. This year they have 3 food items, one of which deserves your attention and your calorie allotment for the day….

  • Chilled Scotch Egg wrapped in Sausage with Mustard Sauce ($4)

Scotch Egg

So for those of you unfamiliar with Scotch Eggs, they’re basically a sausage wrapped hard boiled egg that is meant to be travel friendly and eaten at things like picnics. I’m just going to apologize to all of my UK friends right now. Because…nope. I don’t even care how ugly my picture of this thing is. It didn’t do it for me. As far as I can tell, you don’t even get a whole egg. And it’s chewy. Like, chewier than a hard boiled egg should be. It tastes like cold, leftover breakfast. And it’s breaded – so it’s not even like you’re low-carbing it when you eat one. The creamy mustard is pretty good –  but it’d be better on something else. Skip it and save room for…

  • Zesty Cheeseburger and Cheddar Cheese Macaroni Handwich ($5.50)

Handwich

Commmmme to momma…. This thing is RICH. You might want to block out time for a nap after you eat it. Mac and cheese and bits of burger piled high into a cone shaped soft pretzel. It speaks for itself. Eat it slowly while you stroll around the 35th anniversary exhibits in the building.

There’s also a third “food” item at Epcot Legacy Showplace. L’Orange Cotton Candy – a mixture of lime and orange cotton candy. Confession: I didn’t get it. I’m not a big cotton candy eater and feel like you guys could probably fend for yourselves out there on this one. Cotton candy is overpriced everywhere, so $4.75 doesn’t seem terrible if you’re into it. And this one is apparently French.  So mangez as you will….
