Whitecaps potential new food items

So the 'Caps have released their top 10 submitted ideas for new food at the ballpark this season. Including something that has 5,630 calories (compared to the 5/3 Burger, which has 4,889). Indifferent

Fortunately, one healthy item (veggies and hummus) did make the cut. I suspect it's a move by the Whitecaps staff to appease people like me, but how awesome would it be if that won??

Anyway, check out the list (and vote) here:

Re: Whitecaps potential new food items

  • Not going to lie, I had a hard time deciding on the Sonoran Dog and the Honey Bun Burger.

  • I voted as well. I have to say I was tempted by the Walking  Spaghetti right up until I saw the calorie count.  
  • I cannot believe the amount of calories shoved into that spaghetti thing.  Ick!

    Chicks with Sticks it is. 

    Are they only picking 1 item?

  • Chicks with Sticks, mostly because the others made me feel a little nauseous.

    This.

  • LOL.   Apparently I'm the only fat a$$ here.

    Not so true, I went for the Mac N Cheese Burrito Thing 

  • I'm lame and picked the healthy option.  It was in 2nd place when I voted, but Walking Spaghetti - which, I must admit, sounded kind of hilarious - was in the lead by a pretty big margin.
  • I remember having a vigorous debate here when they introduced the 5/3 burger. I think the Sonoran dog looks good, but voted for chicks with sticks on principle. Plus hummus and veggies are yummy.

    Nah, you're just pregnant!

    I definitely voted for the chicks w/sticks, although I hate the name! I would be voting for the healthy item regardless (for selfish reasons, because we're at the ballpark so often) but honestly, none of the other ones looked even remotely appealing to me. Probably because I don't like beef, and it's in the majority of the options.

    I can't imagine what part of deep fried bologna on a stick you don't find appealing.  Stick out tongue

    Wow, those were some grody concoctions.

    YES. Not to mention, it's one of the few things DH can eat with his wheat allergy.

     

  • Happy to say it did win!  It took a ton of social networking to get the word out, but Chicks with Sticks will be on the 2011 Whitecaps menu.
    Chicks with Sticks rocks!
  • I meant to post a couple of weeks ago: Bob & Tom (national morning radio show) had one of the marketing people on one morning and they sent them samples to taste. Chick liked the bologna thing haha. I thought it was cool that the Whitecaps were getting that much national press!
