Okay, it’s that time of the year again when all eyes turn toward the first Sunday in February to see who will win the coveted title for the Super Bowl. This year’s 52nd Super Bowl will be played at U.S. Bank Stadium in Minneapolis, Minnesota starting at 5:30 p.m. Sunday, February 4th, 2018. The Philadelphia Eagles will go head-to-head with The New England Patriots which should make for an interesting game.
Of course, as much as big-time football fans are all about seeing the game obviously, there is also another aspect to this and that is spelled: FOOD. Yes, food and football have always been synonymous and an ongoing tradition especially at this time of the year. We all know that college football fans tend to do a lot of tailgating in the Fall but that’s just a drop in the bucket when you see how much the pro fans go all out for their Super Bowl parties.
Here are just a few statistics on the Super Bowl and the food eaten just on that one day each year according to an online article from Shape magazine last year at this time:
Of course, since this is an article from Shape magazine, they do also provide several healthy tips to offset the binge eating. If you are interested in seeing the article in its entirety go to: https://www.shape.com/healthy-eating/diet-tips/super-bowl-food-shockers-you-wont-believe.
So, if after reading all of this you are really hungry and ready to find some recipes for the Super Bowl party you are having, then stop by the Daviess County Public Library. We have a plethora of cookbooks that could be of interest to you in coming up with some new ideas or recipes. The cookbook section starts at 641.5 and is probably one of our largest collections in the adult non-fiction area, so don’t hesitate to come in and peruse this section.
Also, here is a link to a booklist entitled Super Bowl Sunday Foods that will give you all kinds of ideas on what we own here at the library so you can be ready and prepared for your feast: https://dcpl.bibliocommons.com/list/share/694210888_dcpl_christy/1130561147_super_bowl_sunday_foods
Hope you have a great time at your Super Bowl parties and that we don’t any more snow!
