Well, the game has started and I have my hot dog, but now I want a hot pretzel and another sandwich, so off to the concession stand I go. I noticed they were holding the sandwiches in a pizza delivery bag so I suggested they look at some counter top merchandiser like the Star 15 MC Countertop Merchandiser that can be used for sandwiches, breakfast burritos and many other snack foods that need to be kept hot. If you need more capacity then look at the Vollrath line of countertop warming unit such as the model 40733. I like this unit because it has heat and humidity control and has three adjustable shelves. If you need to hold pizza then I suggest the Fusion Countertop Pizza and Snack Merchandiser. This is an economically priced unit and does not have a big price tag. I see they really could use a revolving pretzel merchandiser like the Nemco 6403. Given the right equipment any concession stand can almost offer a full meal at the ball game and still serve items that are nutritious as well as delicious.
