Don't forget to take the quiz at the bottom to find out which Super Bowl food you are.
Stock up on antacids and give up the skinny jeans. It's the most delightfully gluttonous day of the year.
Dips
It's cheesy, it's warm and you expect it at every Super Bowl party.
2. Slow cooker Buffalo chicken dip
All the spicy goodness of buffalo chicken and blue cheese with none of the sticky fingers.
3. Guacamole
If you don't have guacamole at your Super Bowl party, do not pass go and do not collect $200. Last year the U.S. was projected to consume 120 pounds of avocado during the big game.
4. 7-layer dip
It's like guacamole wearing diamonds, an evening gown and carrying a $10,000 bag.
Feel free to up the ante by using a few serrano peppers or even a habanero in here.
6. Pizza dip
Transform pizza into a crowd-pleasing dip with layers of cheese, sauce and lots of toppings. Feel free to sub in your favorites (ham and pineapple? mushrooms?), then grab a chip and start scooping.
Make this in your slow cooker and remember to eat it with bacon chips, because...bacon.
If there is anything left over, use it as a substitute for mayonnaise in your cold cut sandwiches.
It's gooey, warm and exactly what you need to either drown your sorrows or celebrate a well-earned victory.
10. Cheeseburger dip
Don't even think about making this dip fancy in any way. The glory is in its processed, decadent, unapologetic natural form.
Appetizers and finger foods:
11. Snack stadiums
It's kitschy. It takes forever to make. And it is totally worth it.
12. Loaded nachos
These can be made vegetarian or with meat and are equally delicious either way.
Use Greek yogurt or labne if you want to avoid sour cream.
It makes regular bacon so #basic.
15. Mini calzones
Pro tip: when they are mini, you can eat six at a time.
Yes they have antioxidants but no, they don't taste too healthy.
17. Frito pie
The best part is these can be enjoyed right in the bag for easy cleanup.
18. Avocado fries
Drizzle with hot sauce or dip in cool ranch dressing.
19. Soft pretzels
Serve with cheese sauce, mustard or both.
20. Sausage puffs
Everyone's favorite bar mitzvah snack only tastes better when your team is winning by a mile.
21. Taquitos
Like tacos but with less chances to have your fillings spill annoyingly out of the shell.
22. Fried pickles
Use bread and butter pickles for a sweet tang or half-sour pickles if you don't love the full-on dill experience.
23. Baked brie
The easiest way to look elegant while still consuming the maximum amount of cheese.
Meat and mains:
24. Chicken wings
Baked or fried, slathered in Buffalo or BBQ sauce, these crispy snacks are key to any Super Bowl party.
25. Chili
Set up a chili bar with chopped onions and tomatoes, shredded cheese, sour cream, sliced scallions and jalapeños. It's worth the potential heartburn.
26. Pulled pork
Feeding a crowd is easy with this no-brainer slow cooker pork shoulder.
27. Pizza
Super Bowl Sunday is typically the No. 1 most popular day for pizza delivery. By halftime of the 2015 game, Pizza Hut broke its sales record with over $10 million in digital sales.
28. Sub sandwiches
Hoagies. Grinders. Subs. Heroes. Whatever you call them, these gigantic sandwiches are essential game day fuel.
29. Sliders
Because you need one hand to stuff your pie hole and the other one to hold your beer.
Up your frankfurter game with these decked-out dogs.
31. Lasagna
Put your slow cooker to work with an insanely easy to make baked pasta that stays warm and gooey throughout the game.
32. Spaghetti pie
Just choose your pasta, grab some cheese and throw on the stretchy pants.
33. Mac and cheese
The game is tied, there are seconds left on the clock and it's fourth down. Reach for the ultimate comfort food.
34. Ribs
They're fall-off-the-bone tender and fingerlickin' good.
35. P.F. Chang's lettuce wraps
The best part of eating at a restaurant while still getting to wear your pajama pants.
36. Irish nachos
Topping crispy potatoes with melted cheddar cheese, guacamole and other nacho fixins is the greatest snack since standard nachos.
37. Poutine
This Canadian dish of gravy, cheese curds and french fries gets an Asian-inspired twist from duck, hoisin sauce and Sriracha.
Desserts:
38. Chocolate chip cookie dough touchdown footballs
Almost too cute to eat. The key word is "almost."
39.
Make them extra rich and decadent with a creamy filling.
40. Chocolate chip skillet cookie
Individual cookies are so Super Bowl 49.
These dessert egg rolls are sure to give you a sugar rush to make it through even the longest overtime.
42. Nutella brownies
You may find yourself bogarting the entire pan to eat after everyone else has left the party.
Drinks:
These ice cream floats make you wonder while you spent all that time idolizing root beer.
44. Spicy margaritas
Infuse the tequila with the jalapeño overnight; any longer and it will become too spicy. You can also prepare the entire cocktail mixture ahead of time and refrigerate it for up to 6 hours.
A light, fizzy way to kick off the morning of the big game.
46. Mexican-influenced Bloody Mary
Just the hair of the dog you need the morning after your team loses the big game
Put your slow cooker to use in the most delicious way possible.
Set up a "spike your own" bar and let people choose whiskey, rum or other spirits to enliven their drinks.
49. Beer
Beer is a must for any Super Bowl party. Get in touch with your inner beer-nerd with craft beers or go for crowd pleasing major brands. If all else fails, mix with lime and tequila for beer-garitas.
50. Jello shots
A celebratory jello shot when your team scores a touchdown.
