Please see the following response from KC Royals Senior VP - Kevin

Uhlich

 

 

Thank you for your recent email requesting that we consider a more expanded

vegetarian menu here at Kauffman Stadium next season.  Based upon customer

feedback, we have decided to enhance our vegetarian offerings and I would like

to share with you our new additions planned for this year.  I have also

included many items which we carried last season and you might not have been

fully aware of.

 

In 2010 you will see several new items that fans should find as pleasant

additions to this important food category.  The first is our new “Burrito

Conceptâ€.  These are made to order and can be made without meat.  This

burrito concept will be conveniently located on two concourse carts located

approximately at sections 232 on the first base side, and 223 on the third base

side of the Plaza Level.  This item will be similar to concepts seen at

Chipotle or Baja Fresh.

 

In addition, we will also offer a vegetarian hot dog and a vegetarian hamburger

option at our 3-pack concession stands.  These stands are conveniently located

at sections 221 and 234 on the Plaza Level concourse, and 417 and 422 on the

View Level upper concourse.  We will also carry the vegetarian burger in Rivals

Sports Bar.

 

We will still be carrying the following vegetarian options from last season.

 

·         Loaded Nacho (ask for no meat)

·         Baked Potato

·         Iceberg Wedge Salad at Rival’s

·         Chop House Salad at Rival’s

·         Cheese Pizza

·         Mac N Cheese for kids

·         Cheese Bites

·         Popcorn, Pretzels, Peanuts, Nachos, Ice Cream, Brownies

 

We appreciate your feedback and we hope that these changes will make your visit

to Kauffman Stadium more enjoyable.

 

Sincerely,

 

KEVIN M. UHLICH

Wonderful! It's cool that you took the initiative. I don't watch baseball or

live anywhere near Kansas City, but perhaps I can ask the managers of hockey

rinks and speedways about better vegetarian options. When I go to a race, I

basically have to smuggle my own food, and that's a long day! Hockey...well, I

content myself with a Diet Coke and a small order of nachos, and have learned to

have dinner before the game.

 

Cute true story: I often have friends over to watch races and hockey games. We

have a huge hi-def TV that we won a couple years ago, and I love to cook and mix

drinks. One of my friends has an adorable 9-year-old daughter who would eat

vegetarian all the time if her mother let her. She's very used to my food.

 

When we went to Nassau Coliseum for a Penguins/Islanders game last October, she

was genuinely surprised and disappointed that they didn't have hummus, which I

consider a sports-watching staple. No black bean chili or bean burritos,

either! The options were very limited for us both, and I was like, " We'll have

nachos, sweetie. The point's to watch our guys win anyway, not to eat. " I'll

bet a lot of vegetarians say that, and Gods help any vegans who want to see a

game or race live!

 

What I find really funny about all this is that when it comes to sporting

events, the athletes we're watching generally eat very healthfully and try to

avoid the food that spectators are offered.

 

Blessed be,

Jayelle

Actually, PETA is responsible!  I went to their website www.peta.org and signed

up for their action emails which tell me what activities are going on in my

area.  They sent me a letter to send to the Royals.  All I had to do was attach

my name and send it.  That, I can do.  Naked picketing in front of a department

store, umm not so much... - Sally
