Those who plan to enjoy a game at Los Angeles' Dodger Stadium will be able to order a unique new concession stand corn cob snack by the name of the 'Cheeto-Lote.' True to its name, the corn-based snack is covered in not just chipotle mayonnaise, Parmesan cheese and Mexican seasoning, but also a crust of Flaming Hot Cheetos, which gives it a bright red coloring.
As stadium snacks set themselves apart as unique food offerings, Major League Baseball created a new spring event called MLB FoodFest that will show off a number of innovative ballpark menu items from across the country.
A number of unconventional Cheeto-covered snacks have been unveiled over the last year, with a particular focus on Flaming Hot Cheetos for their spicy taste and unmistakable coloring.
