PETA’s Guide to Vegan Food at Disney California Adventure Park

Disney California Adventure Park is seriously vegan-friendly. Especially since Disney just announced more than 400 new vegan items, including some at every single restaurant, so you can dine like a prince or princess all day (or week) long. And the parks are making it easy to find them: Just look for the green leaf logo at any eatery. Some of our absolute favorite picks? Try the vegetable and tofu skewer from Paradise Garden Grill, the vegan pasta at Wine Country Trattoria, and the Vegan Chili from the Cozy Cone Motel.
