I read this today and couldn’t believe it. That’s how many crisps (chips if you’re American) that gets consumed whilst people watch the Super Bowl, that’s a shit load of crisps! Lets do a little maths with that.
So lets go for an average bag of crisps which weights 25 grams and contains 160 calories. So that’s 640 calories per hundred grams or 6400 per kilo. A metric tonne (which I’ll presume is what they are talking about) contains 1000 kilos so that’s 6,400,000 calories per tonne. Times the 14,500 tonnes that will be ate and that’s a grand fat staggering total of 92,800,000,000 calories (just in crisps). And the scariest thing about this is that it is all consumed whilst watching a sport, of sorts. If you’re wondering what the food bill is like then its thought that Americans will spend $50 million dollars on food in the run up to this Super Bowl. Credit crunch, what credit crunch?
If you are going to watch the game though and if you’re bored of chips and dips then there are a variety of things you can try. I stumbled across a pretty good guide of recipes for the Super Bowl. Most of which aren’t exactly healthy but a few of which just about pass the grade.
