Family, Chicken Wings, Super Bowl, Snacking Heaven

This weekend in the U.S. it Superbowl time.  Superbowl has become a family food day and Superbowl Sunday in the US is the second most popular day for food consumption after Thanksgiving and according to Steven Johnson, Grocerant Guru® at Tacoma, WA based Foodservice Solutions®.

In truth Superbowl Sunday should be called Grocerant Day because the top five foods consumed will be Grocerant niche Ready-2-Eat and Heat-N-Eat fresh prepared food that is handheld for immediate consumption. 

Here are the top five foods consumed on Superbowl Sunday:

1.       Chicken Winds

2.       Potato Skins

3.       Pizza

4.       Pigs in a Blanket

5.       Cocktail Meatballs  

Get this, Americans to consume a record-breaking 1.4 billion chicken wings during Super Bowl LIV weekend. So, just how many winds is that?  Every player in the NFL, including the San Francisco 49ers and Kansas City Chiefs, would have to consume 825,000 wings each to reach 1.4 billion

·         175 million pounds of wings weighs 1,500 times as much as the entire 49ers team and three of their team buses

·         1.4 billion wings could circle the circumference of the Earth 3 times

·         1.4 billion wings are enough to give every attendee of every Super Bowl since 1967 each 342 wings

·         1.4 billion wings laid end to end would stretch the entire Florida coastline, home of Super Bowl LIV, more than 9 times

·         If each of the 1.4 billion wings were counted as one second, they would equal about 45 years

No matter what you eat on Superbowl Sunday one thing is for sure 9 times out of ten it will be a handheld food for immediate consumption. That’s right Grocerant niche Ready-2-Eat and Heat-N-Eat fresh prepared food will rule the day.
