Opening Day is almost upon us, and with that excitement for baseball comes anticipation of the wild food creations ballparks will dream up for the summer. We get a lot of press releases about new food, but at this point they don\u2019t even register \u2014 someone is wrapping a hot dog in a waffle, there\u2019s some new gut-splitting sundae, it\u2019s all designed to walk the tightrope of gross carnival food to get headlines.<\/p>\n
Once in a great while a team does something truly phenomenal, and we must applaud the Miami Marlins for the creation of the \u201cMachete,\u201d which is absolute concession stand perfection.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s big, it\u2019s bombastic, it\u2019s dumb \u2014 but in all the best ways. Nobody ever asked for or needs a two foot quesadilla, but damn if I don\u2019t respect it. This is one of those items that\u2019s not only ridiculous, but I am here for every single element of it. The tortilla looks artisanal, incredible, and if you can\u2019t respect carne asada, then I can\u2019t respect you. I also really like the added element of Oaxaca cheese in addition to the mozzarella \u2014 there will be ample cheese pull, and Oaxaca is a little more interesting texturally than just mozz.<\/p>\n
