Resolution-ers beware!
The Super Bowl represents the No. 1 at-home party event of the year.
$55 million is expected to be spent on food for The Big Game. (After spending an estimated ten million man-hours (give or take a couple of seconds) preparing all that grub, Americans are expected to consume the lot within approximately fifteen minutes, well before the first touchdown is scored.)
Super Bowl Sunday marks the day on which Americans chow the second-greatest amount of food.
Americans will eat 30 million pounds of snacks on game day.
Here's the breakdown:
* 11.3 million pounds of potato chips;
* 8.5 million pounds of tortilla chips;
* 4.1 million pounds of pretzels;
* 3.8 million pounds of popcorn;
* 2.7 million pounds of nuts.
The average armchair quarterback will consume 1,200 calories and 50 grams of fat. (yeah, that is what some of us should eat ALL DAY)
Time to burn all that off: 4 hours walking around a football field or 1 hour 45 minutes of running
Here's the thing.. if you're a Patriots fan, ignore all of the above. Do you really think that in the rest of your life you're going to see a 19-0 season? The greatest football accomplishment of any of our lives?? Burn it off next week. Everyone else: moderation is the the key!
