MLB Fans Love Iconic American Foods

 

The Major League Baseball season is underway, and the National Hot Dog and Sausage Council says fans will chow down on more than 18 million hot dogs in ballparks this year.

A survey by the organization found fans are expected to consume 18.3 million hot dogs throughout the season in U.S. ballparks.

The Los Angeles Dodgers home, Dodger Stadium, tops the list with projected sales of 2.7 million hot dogs.

Cubs fans are Wrigley Field in Chicago are the runner up, with projected sales of 1.2 million hot dogs.

Meanwhile, the Dodgers’ rivals up the coast, San Francisco Giants fans are expected to purchase 450,000 sausages, with Cubs fans not far behind at 400,000.

As in past years, the Brewers’ Miller Park is the sole MLB venue where sausage sales will outpace hot dogs.

The National Hot Dog and Sausage Council was established in 1994 by the American Meat Institute and celebrates hot dogs and sausages as iconic American foods.
