What is snack worthy?

[goNsoon2WDW]

I refuse to purchase a bottle of water with a snack credit and am looking for the best value for our snack credits in each park for our upcoming trip. What do you consider to be worthy of a snack credit in each park or even at a resort?
TIA

Giant ice cream cookie sandwiches (made at Sleepy Hollow in MK and Dinobites in AK).
All-American Sundae at Ice Cream parlor in MK.
Also a funnel cake at Sleepy Hollow.
Specialty Cupcakes (Butterfinger and Peanut Butter and Chocolate at Starring Rolls)
Starbucks- venti size drinks
Dole Whips- Aloha Isle (new location but still same name I think???) in MK

These snacks are so big that they usually replace a meal for us. We get the 1 TS and 1 QS DDP and we never have to buy any other food

I totally agree with you regarding use of snack credits. I would not use it for a water.
We use up any extra snack credits at Goofy's Candy Co. to take home a bit of Disney sweetness! We like to make a few 'build your own' rice crispy treats and bring home.

Was wondering what to use my snack credits as well, last trip we just bought what we came across when munchy. Someone posted this list a few days ago in a similar thread, helped alot.

I'm going for:
Dole Whip float
Root beer float
Funnel Cake
French Onion Soup at BoG

I picked them because they are yummy, and not surprisingly, all these things are around $5 too which works out well for me

I don't use ours on water, husband does sometimes, lol

What ever food Item that is around $5 is fine if we are talking "bang for your buck"

Salted caramels or caramel cookies from Karmell-Kuche in germany.

We always get cups of ice water free, so bottles of water are a bit of a waste.
We like the fried rice at Yak & Yeti's local foods at DAK. It's quite a large portion. Matter of fact, we'll get that plus the honey chicken entree, and DD and I share & have a hard time eating it all! That being said, I've only been on the dining plan once, but have free QS dining in August.
The cupcakes at Starring Roles look huge.

We always drink lots of free ice water to keep hydrated, so no need for us to buy bottled water.

I just never have thought much about getting the most value out of snacks/meals on the DP. We like to get the standard DP (1 CS, 1 TS, 1 snack p/d p/p). This is always more than enough food. The value comes in everyone being able to eat whatever they want whenever they are hungry, without worrying about it. That's kind of a big deal when you have two hungry teens in the family. We don't live that way at home, but it sure is nice to relax and enjoy it that way at WDW.

Having said that, I do enjoy choosing some things on the upper end of the price scale especially when at Epcot during F&W.

Gaston's cinnamon rolls are a firm choice if you need a snack credit to fill you up.

Also chilli cheese fries is a great choice from Peco Bill's or Cosmic Ray's, also from Liberty Inn at Epcot.

I just found out we will be there for food and wine so I plan to use most of ours there.

We've liked the crepes in France at Epcot, also got several pastries there to use for breakfast the next morning
Jalapeno Pretzel at AK,
Funnel cake, raspberry lemonade slush, and orange-banana smoothie at MK
The kids are happy with the Mickey ice cream bars.
