The Super Bowl is less than two weeks away, and while a lot of people are excited for the game, it seems even more are excited about the food they’ll eat while watching it.
A new poll finds that:
- 56% of people say the main reason they get together to watch the Super Bowl is the food.

- 40% of people are so interested in the food and social aspects of the party that they missed most of the game.
- 74% of people eat more at a Super Bowl party than any other sporting event or viewing party.
- Baby Boomers will likely eat about 1,710 calories during their Super Bowl party, while Gen Zers will only eat about 388.
