The next short alphabetically on Disney Plus is "All in a Nutshell" a Donald Duck short produced in 1949 and distributed by RKO. I, like most people my age, were exposed to these sorts of cartoons as small parts of the schedule, on either BBC or ITV.
Donald Duck has a "nut butter" shop in the middle of a wood. His production is automated and all he has to do is feed in the Walnuts and put the jars on shelves. When he runs out of nuts, he locates a collection in a tree, unfortunately the collection belongs to Chip and Dale and the pair are not happy about having their winter haul stolen. When they see his shop, and taste his produce though, they soon decide that the butter is a far better option and begin stealing the jars.
We'll gloss over "Donald's Nut Butter" as that would have been innocent back then and only takes on a childish amusement nowadays.
I was surprised about just how much slapstick violence there was in this, as I more closely associate that with "Tom and Jerry" rather than and of the Disney characters. It was fun though and the animation was really well done.
