However, Portillo's beef and cheddar croissant is very popular. I've never had it and only mentioned the cheddar because that's how the sandwich normally comes. It's Kyle Schwarber's favorite, however.

One food stand has a salad - I got it with hot dogs etc for others, I think. The salad is definitely not ballpark food and yes, that’s what I carried back to my seat :-)

Tonight's dinner is a grilled chicken sandwich topped with melted cheese, served on a pretzel roll, with a side of fries and a side of green beans.

Finally roasted beets for the first time in a few years. Delicious alone and then a slice of beef with a cheeseburger on roll-ppang. Maybe I’ll try making a salad sandwich for an upcoming luncheon.

It would never occur to me to have anything but beer and a hot dog (or 2) at a baseball game. All these other things are just wrong.
You put beets and a slice of beef on a cheeseburger? Shudder.

You go to watch sport in Australia and you're eating a pie, not a hot dog.

A pie, not pie. And a meat pie not a fruit pie. The pie is like the hot dog in America. Every petrol station sells them and they run the fully span from petrol station pies right through to hipster gourmet things.

Tonight, one of my favorite meals. Shrimp Aguachili with lots of fresh tortilla chips from a small mom and pop in Eureka, CA. that has become a go-to for us.

Actually, I'd suggest any type of sausage on a bun is acceptable, but the local hot dog variant is required the first time you visit any ballpark (I've been to about half). The only exception I've found so far is in Milwaukee, it's a brat with "stadium sauce" instead of a dog.

You need to discover sodium citrate. You can buy a tub of it from amazon. Melt any cheese with a little liquid, like water or stock or beer or wine, and add a teaspoon of sodium citrate. It emulsifies the fat in the cheese and turns any cheese into a melty velveeta consistency.
