DreamWorks Land at Universal Studios Florida has “Shrek”-inspired food available at Swamp Snacks. The menu includes the “Shrekzel,” “Far Far a Waffle” sandwiches, “Swamp Dogs,” ice pops, and more.
Swamp Snacks
Swamp Snacks is located near the entrance of DreamWorks Land. In addition to themed snacks, it serves bottled water, Powerade, Monster Energy, 20 oz. draft beer, and canned beer.
Shrekzel – $12.29
This was horrible. The green cheese gets a big no from us.
The pretzel didn’t taste fresh. It was dry as the desert. We don’t recommend this.
Ham & Cheese Far Far a Waffle – $11.49
This waffle is full of tiny diced ham, which we liked. It also has cheese but it was hard.
The waffle sandwiches are definitely over-priced. We would rather make our own.
Pepperoni Far Far a Waffle – $11.49
The pepperoni sandwich is dry and hard. It reminds us of cheese fries.
Overall, we were unimpressed and will be keeping far far away from these waffles.
Swamp Dog – $9.49
Oozing green cheese hot dog wrapped in pizza tree bark
Our group was mixed on the hot dog. It’s oily with odd green stains. We think the actual meat is a Nathan’s hot dog. It was kind of small compared to the breading.
Despite our mixed feelings, this is the best hot food at Swamp Snacks.
Mud Puddle Pudding – $5.99
Chocolate pudding, cookie crumbs, cookie cake, and gummy bugs
There’s nothing special about this — it’s standard worms and dirt. It comes with a plastic shovel spoon that isn’t very helpful in scooping up bites. The cake is a typical Universal cupcake.
It’s sweet. There are some harder rock-like chocolates. Kids will enjoy this.
Frozen Ogre Sour Apple Ice Pop – $6.99
This is one of the best things we ate in DreamWorks Land. It’s refreshing, especially on a hot Florida day.
It’s not too sweet but not sour at all. It has a HI-CHEW green apple flavor.
The packaging is hard to open and the ice pop comes on a weirdly shaped stick. But other than that, it’s the perfect treat.
Chonkey Donkey Chocolate Ice Pop – $6.99
The Donkey ice pop is just as delicious as the Shrek one. It tastes similar to a JELL-O pudding pop.
It’s so cold that you can see ice crystals on it, so it has a popsicle feel with chocolate pudding flavor. We love it.
