Calling Variable Tags in Product Description

I created a Variable Tag (added it to my theme files) and I'd like to call it from the Product Description. When I call the tag from another liquid file it works... but when I try to call it from the Product Editor it doesn't work.

How can I call a Variable Tag from the Product/WYSIWYG Editor? Do Variable Tags only work in liquid files?

What I added to the theme file: {% assign favorite_food = 'apples' %}

What I'm trying to use in the Product Description: My favorite food is {{ favorite_food }}.

Yes its possible but little differently.

Change your product description code like this

{{ product.description | replace: '[favorite_food]', 'apples' }}

Now you can use use the shortcode [favorite_food] anywhere in your product description and it will return the value 'apples'.

Just like that you can use product tags or assigned variables with replace string filter.

{{ product.description | replace: '[price]', product.price }}

Hope this helps
