Eating at a ball game - go Twins go!!

Any low cal suggestions for something I can eat while I'm enjoying the game there on Sunday? I am trying to behave yet get that "experience" of eating and having fun with my family at the game.

Go Twins!! :happy:

I think most ball parks have grilled chicken sandwiches, just get it without the bun!

A hot dog without condiments will probably be your best bet. The calories in hot dogs and buns can vary dramatically, so it's hard to say exactly what you'll be getting...but it will be better than nachos or anything like that, most likely.

Go as whole food as you possibly can...skip the buns, choose a slab of meat over a processed chunk (e.g. chicken breast over hamburger or hot dog), water instead of soda, etc.

Of course...if your team is winning I don't think calories stick, do they?

No, so in that case, I will drink a lot of beer, eat until I'm out of money and then stop at McDonalds on the way home...HAHAHA (kidding)

Nice to see another Twins fan on here. I did a google search of Target Field food and this came up. You might go a little over on the calories but at least it's good food.

Warm up on a chilly day with a steaming cup of hearty wild rice soup. This Lunds- and Byerly's-made classic ($6) is brimming with nutty, chewy Minnesota-raised wild rice and bits of almonds and smoky ham. Runner up: the robust beef-black bean chili ($6, Halsey's Sausage Haus), based upon a crowd-pleasing recipe from one of the city's original sports bars, the nearby Loon Cafe.

Awesome!! It's suposed to be beautiful out this weekend...lucky us!! Enjoy Saturday!!

Important weigh in for me on Monday and a goal I really, truely want to meet, so as much as I want to live it up, which is a great thought, I want to maybe go 1/2 way with that thought. Sodium is a big killer for me...so I'm thinking a plain hotdog might be best - thanks for the suggestions...

one more...why without condiments? Do they really add a lot of cals? Maybe sodium?
