Kanye West has been criticized for selling overpriced snacks at his album listening party on Thursday night at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium.
A photo of an event menu with 'Kanye West Listening Party' written across it went viral on Tuesday, as it listed insanely priced food items including $40 'all beef kosher franks' hot dogs, and $50 for chicken tenders.
Also on offer was $35 sweet and salty kettle corn, $65 for an assorted snack basket, and $45 cookies and brownies.
It is not clear if the menu's pricing was changed for the event, but the official Mercedes-Benz Club website features much more reasonably priced items including a classic hot dog for $1.50, and a chicken Caesar salad for $7.

Some fans came to West's defense saying the prices were for multiple items, while another Twitter user noted there were more affordable options available.
'I bought a full pizza at the event for like $15. Water and drinks were only $2. You could get snacks for much cheaper. This isn't the ordinary stand,' one fan wrote.
Meanwhile, the rapper kept his eager fans waiting almost two hours at the event, as he arrived late for his own album listening
