Major League Baseball teams continue to innovate with their ballpark food.
Fans are filling ballparks and consuming peanuts and Cracker Jack along with hot dogs sold hot off the grill. However, some teams are debuting food creations that are far bolder than standard ballpark fare.
The Kansas City Royals debuted a dish called the “Taste of the K Taco”, a hot dog wrapped in a cheeseburger quesadilla, with barbecue brisket, French fries, lettuce, onions, Sriracha Cracker Jacks and 816 Sauce.
