Citi Field has a food stand called Vegan City which has meatless burgers, jackfruit nachos, and a few other options. It isn't very good, and it's still only a small percentage of the overall offerings, but sadly this still places Citi Field above other stadiums in regards to vegan options. Agree with queems here, smuggling food in is the way to go!
