Major League Baseball team New York Mets announced on Twitter Thursday night that it is partnering with the famous Israeli snack brand Bamba.
A favorite treat in Israel, Bamba, which is owned and manufactured by Osem, is a peanut-butter-flavored corn puff that has been around since 1964 and is widely considered an iconic Israeli snack. 

 
The snack comes in a wide variety of flavors as well, and has even been credited in a 2008 study for lower rates of peanut allergies in Israel due to early and widespread consumption by children. 
Bamba is also available in numerous countries, often found in kosher stores.
