What is MLB food?
Baseball is strong on tradition. Throughout the decades, the MLB (Major League Baseball) has done well in preserving old traditions—from the rules of the game to the food it serves. No other sport has specific foods so strongly embedded in its history as baseball and foods like hot dogs, peanuts and Cracker Jacks. (Know the song “Take Me Out to the Ballgame”? A couple of those foods are mentioned in the lyrics.) At the same time, the MLB recognizes that times are changing and there is always room for improvement. Today, the evolution of baseball food is more apparent than ever.
As “American as apple pie,” baseball games used to have a basic offering of traditional American food. With the increasing diversity of the MLB players and fanbase, the foods offered at games has also become quite diverse. Each of the 30 teams now offer fans a taste of some of their best local cuisine…much of it influenced by international cuisines introduced by their city’s immigrants. This includes Filipino sisig fries, Mexican elote nuggets and Oaxacan grasshoppers. Major League Baseball isn’t saying goodbye to the classic American foods of yesteryear, but it is making plenty of room for all the unique and delicious foods their team’s cities have to offer.
Where can I get them?
Obviously, you can get MLB foods at the ballparks where the MLB teams play. Remember that many of these foods are specific to each location, so don’t just go to any one ballpark expecting to try every featured food across the league. If you have the time and resources, it’s definitely worth traveling to each place to get the absolute full experience. However, not everyone has the luxury to do so. The most efficient way to try foods from every team is to attend the MLB Foodfest.

The MLB Foodfest is an annual food festival organized by the MLB. The 1st MLB Foodfest began in 2018 in New York City. Now, it is held in multiple cities including LA, New York and London. It showcases unique foods served at each of the 30 ballparks where the MLB teams play. It also features a few international cuisines where international games are played.
