Top Super Bowl Foods by the Numbers

Chips, beer, wings, and dip are just a few foods that Americans consume a whole lot of during the Super Bowl. We're talking millions of pounds! If you've ever wondered what the true numbers amount to, then keep clicking for the breakdown.

The Super Bowl is one of the 10 biggest days in beer sales for the U.S., amounting to 50 million cases, most of which are consumed at home and not at bars.

Compared to all other chips, pretzels, and popcorn, potato chips are the favorite Super Bowl snack; viewers forked over $184 million in 2013 for potato chips alone — compared to $40 million for pretzels and $12 million for rice cakes — and 11.2 million pounds of potato chips were consumed.

Tortilla chips were a close second, amounting to 8.2 million pounds!

Holy guacamole! Tons of avocados are sold during the Super Bowl, used in staple dips like seven-layer dip and guacamole. In 2013, around 79 million pounds of avocados were sold for the Super Bowl. Compare that insane amount to the average weekly avocado shipments of 20 million pounds.

Americans consumed 1.23 billion chicken wings — the equivalent of over 100 million pounds of wings — during the weekend of Super Bowl XLVII.

Dominoe's Pizza estimated 11 million slices were sold on the big game day, and 300,000 online orders were made on Super Bowl Sunday in 2013.
