“Our food and beverage staff has been hard at work this offseason planning up these new creations for the Extreme Food Menu,” RubberDucks President and General Manager Jim Pfander said. “This year’s new creations are an extreme take on classic food items that are staples on dinner plates. We are proud to partner with Rubber City Radio to help contribute to great charities. The Extreme Food Menu began in 2011 and has become synonymous with the Akron RubberDucks ballpark experience, and we can’t wait for the fans to tempt their tastebuds with the new and classic items available at Canal Park.”
Back once again this season to the Extreme Food menu is the WAKR Pineapple TeriyAkron Bowl. The most popular Extreme Food item in 2024 was first introduced in 2014 and is a half pineapple hollowed out and filled with a mixture of white rice, grilled chicken, diced pineapple and Thai chili garlic sauce topped with a teriyaki glaze. New to the item this year is a partnership with WAKR where $1 from every sale benefits the Salvation Army.
These extreme items join the returning fan favorite 98.1 KDD Screamer. This five-pound sundae served in a RubberDucks batting helmet is 21 scoops of Smith’s Premium ice cream on top of a brownie base and finished off with chocolate syrup, bananas, whipped cream, sprinkles and maraschino cherries. The 98.1 KDD Screamer is one of the three original Extreme Food Menu items debuting in 2011. Joining the KDD Screamer on the original menu and returning in 2025 are the Three Dog Night and the Nice 2 Meat U Burger.
