The Super Bowl is this weekend! Sunday, February 12th at 6:30 PM, we get to watch all the best commercials and movie trailers that will help dictate media for the rest of 2023, spawning potentially dozens of memes. Oh, and the Kansas City Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles will be playing, of course.

The Super Bowl is one of the most watched television events of the year. Is it because of the game? Nope. Is it because of the commercials? Uh uh. What about Rihanna performing at this year's half time show? That's not it either.

The whole reason why the Super Bowl has become such a staple to families and friend groups all across the nation is because of the food. Yes, Super Bowl Sunday is the shining light in a season darkness and gloom. You finish the holidays by January 1st, and you are left in a cold, wet, dismal month. What a way to start the year.

But then, in mid-February, we gave ourselves a weekend to cheat on all the New Year's Resolution diets that we had already given up on by Week 3 of January, and allow ourselves to go crazy with the best comfort food imaginable.
