Island Whip?

I agree, even if Dole doesn't renew their contract, Disney will find a way to replace it.

The yogurt place nearby sells it and calls it Dole Whip. Tastes so yummy with some shaved ice on top too ... I'm almost tempted to go get some right now.

I love that stuff, even though I think it's over priced. Should've got one the last time I was there.

When I went to Hawaii this past summer I had Dole Whip at least ten times. The hotel had two coffee shops selling them. YES. And they were nowhere near as expensive as they are at Disneyland.

Pineapple freeze

They should make a coconut freeze too!

Doesn't WDW have different flavored whips? I believe there was a thread about this not too long ago, actually...

Keep it. It's an investment.

Re: Dole Whip leaving

can't disney just clone it and call it something else

Re: Dole Whip leaving

It will be Dole's loss then...they are not the only ones who sell pineapple or pineapple soft serve ice cream, so Disney will simply find a new sponsor/vender, change the name a bit, and continue on.

Hmm, yeah I'll believe it when I see it. Not ready to cry foul just yet.

Doubt it, they sponsor the tiki room and the big 50th anniversary is next year.

It always strikes me as odd that posts like this get pages and pages of replies without anyone asking what is the source of this rumor?

They're not going anywhere!!!!!!! Not if I have anything to do with it!!

Re: Dole Whip leaving

I don't know where all the disbelief is coming from. Sponsors have come and gone since the first days of the park. Welch's, Sunkist, Monsanto, Wonder Bread, Bank of America, Goodyear are just a small sample of sponsors that have long since left. And many of these partnerships during their days were so strong that in those days it felt that Disneyland would not be the same without them.

Rumor or not, one day Dole will go away, and people will miss them no more than the other sponsors that helped to make Disneyland such a great place.

I miss the sponsors of imagination, WoL, ect at EPCOT, but I don't really miss any sponsors at Disneyland. Then again, Disneyland did not emphasize the idea of sponsorship to the extent that WDW did/ does.
