The most curious item in ballpark cuisine is packed into small, clear plastic containers, like those used for salsa at a takeout restaurant, and stacked under lamps at a small stand on the Safeco Field outfield concourse.
When I walk up to take a peek as the Mariners game against the White Sox begins, the young man behind me tells his friend that buying the $4 container will be "an experience."
It's only a couple of minutes before my turn for that experience, so I tell the woman at the counter I'll have the chicken tacos — and the grasshoppers.
