As ballparks throughout the U.S. and Canada continue to expand their menus, there are more healthy, humane, and delicious vegetarian options than ever before. And even though the competition has heated up considerably since PETA began ranking the top 10 vegetarian-friendly ballparks in 2002. , no one was able to unseat last year's reigning champ and this year's winner--the Philadelphia Phillies' Citizens Bank Park. Although New York and Florida are giving the Phils a run for their money for the National League East lead, the best that the Mets and the Marlins could muster in PETA's race was honorable mention. In addition to the faux Philly steak, meat-free subs and wraps, and veggie dogs and burgers that gave Philadelphia a lock on first place last year, the stadium has added a superb crab-free crab cake and mock-chicken sandwich that have put the Phils in a league of their own.
In second place again this year is AT&T Park, home of the San Francisco Giants. The Giants--former PETA pennant winners--offer veggie dogs and burgers, a portobello mushroom sandwich, vegetarian sushi, and the vegetarian cha cha bowl, which is filled with black beans, rice, and pineapple salsa. Rounding out the top five winners are the Seattle Mariners' Safeco Field, the San Diego Padres' PETCO Park, and the Chicago White Sox's U.S. Cellular Field.
