Fenway Park Veggie Dogs

Red Sox 2010 Season Opener Veggie Dog 

Fenway has added veggie dogs & veggie burgers to the menu this season. I had to try one the second I got into the park for the opening day Sox/Yankees game. $5.00 is a lot of cash flow for the size of the veggie dog (and any of the other concessions.) I could have eaten three of them, but most of the food items in the park are $5.00. The guy at the concession stand said I was the first person he sold one to this season... I hope they catch on. It tasted pretty good, but wasn't the best veggie dog I've ever had. I took a photo of the vendor peeps selling the veg-dogs and then attempted to get a photo of my veg-dog (with mustard & relish) running to third base...

I wrote to Fenway Park about the ingredients and I heard back, but I'm still not sure what "smoke flavor" and "spices & flavoring" consist of. It looks as though these are Vegan, but you never know with the ambiguous terms like "flavoring" and "spices." Here is a copy of the response:



Brand: Schreiber Vegan Franenkfurters
Ingredients: Water, wheat gluten, soy protein 
concentrate, soy oil, cellulose gum, carrageenan
(seaweed), tamari sauce, spices & flavoring,
salt, smoke flavor, Contains: Soy, Wheat

The brand of veggie dogs may change 
during the season based on availability.

Thank you for your interest.
