Super Bowl LVIII is taking place this Sunday, Feb. 11, which means snacks are on the horizon.
Ahead of game day, Instacart shared snacking data in its "Snacktime Report," which uses Instacart's purchase data to uncover America’s favorite Super Bowl snacks and beverages. The online grocery delivery and pick-up service also leaned on consumer survey insights from The Harris Poll.
"Our look into the nation’s shopping carts during the week leading up to the Big Game reveals the true snack MVPs: from tortilla chips being the No. 1 food sold for the Big Game accompanied by lots of rich dips, to the zesty kick of hot wing fixings," Laurentia Romaniuk, Instacart trends expert, told FOX Business.
"Americans also snag cozy favorites like chili and the ingredients for favorites like buffalo chicken dip while also ensuring there are easy-to-grab crowd pleasers like pretzels, gooey mozzarella sticks, and pistachios," she added.
