Fixture json data will not populate properly for a select value

See original GitHub issue

Current behavior:

Using fixture data variable from a fixture.json file, Cypress is unable to locate a select even though it located the exact same value when it was hard coded.

Example: Without Fixture:

cy.get('#expire_month_display').select('11')  <---value is actually 11 not the label or name.
 With fixture data var:
cy.get('#expire_month_display').select(data.oeMonth)

Here is the json:

"oeMonth": 11,

Desired behavior:

Fixture data should populate properly the value for selects

Test code to reproduce

See above, i am running tests on a payment gateway and prefer not to disclose our credentials in th test code.
