The Wildest Ballpark Food Sold Around MLB in 2025
As MLB ballparks welcome fans back each spring, as part of the experience patrons have come to expect new and wacky concessions items. Stadiums around the league seem to try to one-up another each season, hoping that, along with diehard season ticket holders, casual fans and influencers alike will be drawn to their park by more than just the product on the field.
The 2025 season is no different. We’ve rounded up 10 of the wildest food available around MLB this year, from a 24-inch burrito to many riffs on turning savory items like quesadillas and nachos into dessert.
To make the list, all items must be new this season and boast an unusual twist.
S'mores Quesadilla (Philadelphia Phillies)
1 of 10
A common theme among this year's inventive MLB concessions is savory items, like a quesadilla, turned into dessert. And the Phillies' s'mores quesadilla is no exception.
Eschewing the expected ingredients like chicken, sour cream and cheese, this flour tortilla is stuffed with Nutella, mini marshmallows and graham cracker crumble, fried and served with a chocolate dipping sauce. To find it, you'll have to venture to Section 142 of Citizens Bank Park.
Daddy Mac Dog (Houston Astros)
2 of 10
When considered independently, the components of the Astros' new Daddy Mac Dog aren't that unusual.
A beef frank (granted, a footlong one); macaroni and cheese; barbecue sauce; crispy dill pickle; chopped brisket...all foods one might find at a ballpark.
When assembled together, however, the Daddy Mac Dog becomes a spectacle to behold. And, unlike some of the specialty items on this list that are only available in one far-flung corner of the stadium, the Daddy Mac Dog can be found in five different sections of the newly minted Daikin Park.
What Up Corn Dog (Seattle Mariners)
3 of 10
"What's up with this green corn dog?" is what you might ask yourself upon ordering the new What Up Corn Dog at a Mariners game this season.
The dog—which is not actually green but "Mariners blue"—is honey-battered, dunked in nacho cheese and then coated in a spicy crunch.
One word of caution: fans who have sought out the radioactive-colored corn dog have been disappointed to see that in real life it doesn't quite look as advertised. Maybe concessions was just having an off day.
Polish Cannonball (Pittsburgh Pirates)
4 of 10
At first blush, the Pirates’ Polish Cannonballs don’t look so strange. We’re used to fried balls of food in many forms, both high-end (arancini) and low-end (mac and cheese).
Ah, but it’s what the Polish Cannonballs are stuffed with that makes them so out of left field. (Pardon the pun.) These little guys are stuffed with a full meal's worth of Polish staples: egg noodles, kielbasa, cabbage, bacon, cheddar cheese and herb crema dip.
You can find them at PNC Park's Cannonball Stand.
Cotton Candy Fries (Toronto Blue Jays)
5 of 10
If you’ve visited the Great White North, you know that one of Canada’s culinary masterpieces is poutine, a dish originating from Quebec and consisting of fries and cheese curds topped with a brown gravy.
This season, the Blue Jays are putting their own twist on the concept with their cotton candy fries, consisting of fries topped with, you guessed it, cotton candy, as well as blue caramel and creme anglaise.
Note that these aren't funnel fries, which are actually fried dough and thus a reasonable vessel for cotton candy and caramel, but honest-to-goodness hot, salty, potato-based French fries.
Banana Bread Pudding Helmet (San Diego Padres)
6 of 10One law of baseball games is that all food tastes better out of a plastic helmet. The baseball community over on Reddit has put their best minds on compiling a list of all the foods across MLB stadiums served in souvenir helmets, spanning the normal offerings (nachos, ice cream) to the wildly inventive (Korean fried chicken at Dodger Stadium, Skyline Chili in Cincinnati).
For 2025, the Padres have thrown their hat (helmet?) into the ring with a twist: banana bread pudding helmets.
These souvenir buckets are stuffed with vanilla wafers, banana pudding, candied nuts and glazed banana slices.
Blue Velvet Whoopie Pie (Kansas City Royals)
7 of 10
Sure, if you're being nitpicky, the only unusual thing about this new Royals whoopie pie is that it's a shade of blue not found in nature. It's basically a red velvet cake that jumped to the other side of the color wheel.
But presentation is just as important as taste when it comes to MLB parks' wild food offerings. These babies are designed as much to be posted across social media as they are to be eaten. And the truth is that if you were scrolling through your feed and came across a photo of a blue whoopie pie, you'd probably stop and look. That's exactly what Kauffman Stadium is banking on with this treat, which can be found at the park's Rivals Sports Bar.
Miso and Shoyu Ramen (San Francisco Giants)
8 of 10
Ramen is another food that, in and of itself, isn't inherently unusual, especially in San Francisco, home to some of the country's best Japanese cuisine.
But ramen is not typically a ballpark food. And when taken in that context, someone shoveling in a bowl of piping-hot shoyu ramen as people around them munch on popcorn or hot dogs is certainly offbeat.
Starting in 2025, the new Rah Rah Ramen stand in Section 127 at Oracle Park carries both the shoyu pork ramen as well as a miso vegetarian option.
Dessert Nachos (Colorado Rockies)
9 of 10
Like its s'mores quesadilla counterpart over in Philly, the Rockies' dessert nachos put a sweet twist on a canonically savory concept.
The sugar fix comes by way of fried flour tortillas tossed in cinnamon sugar and fresh berries that are topped with powdered sugar and caramel drizzle and served with a side of whipped cream.
These nachos can only be acquired at one Coors Field location: Section 134.
Boomstick Burrito (Texas Rangers)
10 of 10
Last but certainly not least, especially when it comes to length, the Texas Rangers' new Boomstick Burrito is so comically large that it essentially comes with a suggested serving size. (The burrito is cut into four sections, strongly implying one person is only meant to consume six of its 24 inches.)
The overall circumference of the unrolled tortilla, pictured below, hilariously appearing to hold its own press conference, is 26 inches.
If you set aside its size (and really, you can't; you're going to need help carrying this one back to your seat), the Boomstick is just a normal burrito, filled with normal burrito things: taco meat, rice, beans, cheese, pico de gallo, lettuce and sour cream.
