description: Eat Like Walt explores the lore of each land beginning with Main Street U.S.A. an homage to Walt's childhood home of Marceline Missouri to Tomorrowland set in futuristic 1986 a year Disney would not live long enough to see. Although Disneyland opened in 1955 its culinary history dates back to 1923 when Walt Disney first arrived in Hollywood. Walt was a simple eater yet a big dreamer. By 1934 four years before his first feature film Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs would be released Mickey Mouse had made him famous enough to have a recipe published in Better Homes &amp; Gardens magazine. Ask fans what Walt's favorite food was and most will say Chili. Chili has a cult status at Disneyland. People want to eat what Walt ate the way he ate where he ate it.
