The iconic Venezuelan arepa has crossed borders again and is now arriving in the heart of Florida, inside Disney's Animal Kingdom theme park, where it's already a culinary option attracting the attention of tourists and locals alike.

The Smiling Crocodile establishment offers this offering that fuses tradition with a Disney-themed touch: an arepa stuffed with shredded chicken, cheese, and the traditional guasacaca, accompanied by crispy tostones as a snack, priced at $13.49. Disney's official food account described it this way: "The new arepas have arrived at Disney's Animal Kingdom!"

Reactions among Venezuelans to the park's post were immediate. Some pointed out that the preparation differs from the authentic traditional reina pepiada—"It doesn't look like an arepa as such, but it's a start," commented one user. However, the flavor and response were positive. A visitor from the US noted: "The best so far! So good and delicious!"

This event underscores how Venezuelan cuisine continues to gain ground around the world, even making its way into global theme parks. Beyond the flavor, these types of initiatives reinforce Venezuela's cultural presence and identity beyond our borders.
