The 10 best baseball foods – cosmo-polis.ch

Baseball. Meal. The Fourth of July. Some things just belong together.

First, let me start by saying that this isn’t a list of the fancy, tasty food you’ll see in stadiums across the country. I could tell you the momofuku fried chicken at CitiField is the best, but who cares? This is about staple foods, peanuts and Cracker Jack, not sushi and sashimi in San Diego. So, without further ado, here are the best classic baseball edibles, ordered accordingly.

I never got nachos at the stadium. So messy, so hard to share, impossible to fully clean your hands without a faucet. Still, you see them so clearly all the time that people like them.

9. Popcorn

It’s salty. It’s buttery. It gets the job done.

A very American staple while looking at America’s pastime is usually an easy win. But sometimes you get the hockey puck burger and you’re disappointed. It’s just one of those things that’s relatively easy to get wrong, and I’ve burned myself before – pun intended.

7. Ice Cream

There’s something special about being a kid and eating soft serve ice cream off a mini plastic batting helmet and getting it all over your hands, clothes and those within a four seat radius. The reason this isn’t higher is because honestly you can get ice cream anywhere. It’s not like this is a baseball staple. Go on …

Nothing says baseball like soiling the ground beneath and around you with discarded, chewed up sunflower seeds. Also, players chew them, so it’s like playing while eating them in the stands.

5. French fries

Hot from the deep fryer with some ketchup, it doesn’t get any better than that.

These delicacies are gooey, sweet and crunchy and are complemented by the almighty salty compliment of the. ..

3. Peanuts

When you mix peanuts and crack jacks, life is better. But if I had to choose just one, I’d just go with peanuts because they go better with each drink.

Personally, I need mustard on mine, but this salty treat always raises a smile and, despite what your friend may tell you, you can share a pretzel.

1. Hot Dog

Whatever condiments you choose, if any, you can’t go wrong with a hot dog while watching baseball. It’s quintessential baseball food, and whether it’s a foot length or regular meal, there’s something special about grilling one on a flattop.
