Walt Disney World in Florida just unveiled its brand-new project: Toy Story Land, the newest section of Disney's Hollywood Studios. The 11-acre section is dedicated to the Pixar movies and the characters who have become household names since the first film's release in 1995. And the whole park is incredibly nostalgic, down to the food.

Guests can pick up breakfast, lunch, and dinner at Woody's Lunch Box, the quick-service restaurant on site at Toy Story Land. Since the entire park is modeled after Andy's backyard, the restaurant has a backstory, too.

Woody's Lunch Box looks like a literal lunch box propped up by a thermos, and that's because Andy left it like that in the backyard. He was planning a picnic for the green army men, but then he abandoned the lunch box to go back inside, leaving the toys to their own devices. And since you, the visitor, are an honorary toy, that means you get to partake in the provisions.

The food on offer is every kid's dream, with a few healthy-ish options to appease Mom and Dad. Though even grownups will have a hard time resisting the nostalgic dishes that include tater tots, gourmet Pop-Tarts, and lots and lots of cheese.

“Everyone has a special food memory, so it can be tricky putting a modern spin on the favorites,” Lenny DeGeorge, concept development culinary director for Walt Disney World, said in a statement. "How we constructed the sandwiches was important, such as layering the ingredients in a specific order, to maximize textures and flavors. Why have a cold sandwich when you can have a toasted, hot, gooey, cheese-filled one?” A question for the ages, indeed.

Once you've had your s'mores French toast or tater-tot nachos, you can wash it all down with a drink in a souvenir cup that features the aliens from Pizza Planet. Those cups are only available for a limited time to celebrate the park's launch, so act fast.
