So the story begins, "Buy me some peanuts and Cracker Jack. And some more. And more."
America's sporting venues are looking to boost sales, and dietitians are less-than-thrilled with the solution. All-you-can-eat seats, introduced first by the L.A. Dodgers, mean all the hot dogs, chips and popcorn you'd like -- not exactly the best diet choices (any one of us could tell you that), especially when they're not in moderated portion sizes. The seats cost 50 percent more than regular tickets on average.
"The result is like a giant hot dog on a hook -- a way for teams to lure new fans to their games or get old ones to switch to higher-priced sections," the story reads.
