#8: Super Bowl Sunday Is a Food Extravaganza

Football is only half the excitement on Super Bowl Sunday—the food is just as important! It’s the second-largest food consumption day in the U.S., trailing only Thanksgiving. During the big game, Americans devour an estimated 1.4 billion chicken wings, 11 million pounds of chips, and 8 million pounds of guacamole.

Pizza delivery orders skyrocket, and beer sales surge as fans gather for watch parties. Whether it’s nachos, BBQ, or buffalo dip, food is as much a Super Bowl tradition as the game itself, making it one of the best days of the year for snack lovers.
