The Super Bowl is about so much more than just the game. It's about the spread—the food spread, that is—and the halftime show (this year, we were blessed with performances from Eminem, Kendrick Lamar, Mary J. Blige, and more). But it's also about the commercials. Sure—during the rest of the year, commercial breaks are a great time to top off your drink or pop off to the loo. But during the Super Bowl? Big budgets and the promise of millions of eyeballs encourage food and drink brands to up their commercial game in a major way.

And this year we experienced a full range of emotions between plays. Budweiser got everyone misty-eyed, Uber Eats had us rolling on the ground in fits of laughter, and Busch Light's commercial was just plain weird. How much did these commercials spend on airtime? Last year, the average 30-second Super Spot slot cost a whopping $6.5 million—not that big spenders always produce the best ads.

Here are some of our favorite food and drink-focused ads from this year's Super Bowl.

1

Flamin' Hot Cheetos and Doritos

Flamin' Hot flavors are so flamin' hot right now, so it makes sense they're getting the Super Bowl commercial treatment. Watch the animal kingdom find out why the rest of the world loves Flamin' Hot Cheetos and Doritos, too.

Budweiser

We wait every year to watch a gorgeous Budweiser Clydesdale horse with its own hair and makeup team (probably) gallop through an open field, and this year is no different.

Taco Bell

Does having Doja Cat in this Taco Bell commercial make up for the weird clown storyline? Absolutely.

Lay's

We love a good celebrity duo. Paul Rudd and Seth Rogan living out their "golden memories" at Rogan's wedding with Lay's chips is iconic.

BIC

OK, so this technically isn't a food ad, but hello: Martha Stewart and Snoop Dogg are together again! We're here for it. Plus, we love the way Martha says "Bowl of strawberries???"

10

Cutwater Spirits

It's not being lazy, it's about working "smarter, not harder," says Cutwater Spirits. Bonus: This commercial normalizes using a flamethrower to clear snow from your driveway, so there's that.

There's something about beer brands and Super Bowl commercials that just fits. In this Busch Light ad, we're treated to the smooth voice of the mountains and a cameo from easy listening pioneer and saxophonist Kenny G.

PepsiCo

This commercial for PepsiCo products is all about the road to the Super Bowl featuring several famous former football players, a little sibling rivalry, plenty of game-day snacks and drinks, and a whole lot of chaos.

Avocados from Mexico

Tailgating, but outside the Colosseum? Sounds like fun. Throwing in avocados from Mexico to make fresh guac? Even better.

14

Uber Eats

Uber Eats doesn’t just deliver food, this ad wants you to know. And you shouldn't eat deodorant, Trevor Noah.

Arnold Schwarzenegger dressed as Zeus just feels right. This is probably how he'd act in a coffee shop, right?

16

Michelob ULTRA

We're getting major "The Big Lebowski" vibes from this Michelob ULTRA spot, which features Peyton Manning. a bunch of other celebrities, and a cameo from—who else—Steve Buscemi.

Oikos

NFL legend Deion “Prime Time” Sanders and college quarterback Shedeur Sanders, who just happens to be his son, go head to head in an Oikos-powered battle of strength.

18

Sam's Club

We love a scan-and-go option when grocery shopping. And we love Kevin Hart. Also, Sam's Club. Which makes this a pretty good Super Bowl commercial.
