While the Yankees are trying to build a team that gives reasons for fans to come to Yankee Stadium next season, they might want to skip the food once they get there.
According to a food-safety investigation into major sporting venues across the country conducted by ESPN, based on reports in 2016 and 2017, Yankee Stadium was ranked last in MLB with a violation rate of 79.07 percent.
Of the 43 outlets inspected at Yankee Stadium, 34 contained high-level violations. The issues in The Bronx included problems with food handling, with investigators finding multiple locations where food was “adulterated, contaminated, cross-contaminated, or not discarded” properly.
