Food and Drink: Sales and Consumption
When you think of ballgames, you automatically think of hot dogs, cracker jacks, and
lots (and lots) of beer. I actually tried my first bag of cracker jacks on our trip, and thought
they were pretty good! But the amount of these foods that are sold (and consumed) is
through the roof!
Crazy! America sure knows how to put down the calories!
