Are you ready for some football?!

With Super Bowl fast approaching, will you be hosting a party or attending one? Food and snacks are one of the greatest things about watching the big game (aside from the commercials). What will you be making this year? Here's a few easy ideas to get things rolling.

Popcorn is probably the easiest snack to serve to any guest. You can serve traditional butter popcorn or even spice things up a bit. Glaze Pop flavors and Color Pop Salt are a great way to cheer on your team with a color theme. You can also use Savory Shake on flavors. With Savory Shakes, it's the perfect alternative to serving potato chips.

Who doesn't love going to the stadium and ordering a big tray of nachos? Whip up a large batch for guests to enjoy. Or even better, make tacos in a bag! El Nacho Grande portion pak Chips and cheese are great for this idea. Simply open the bag of chips. pour in the nacho cheese, taco seasoned meat, salsa, sour cream, and jalapenos. A walking taco that won't dirty your hands or your clothes!

Another great snack that is a food staple is soft pretzels. With this, you can also incorporate the Shavory Shakes flavors and the El Nacho Grande portion pak cheese cups. For the Savory Shakes, simply sprinkle on one of the many flavors (Sour Cream & Chive, Jalapeno, Salt & Vinegar, Ranch, BBQ, Cheddar, or White Cheddar). Want to keep it more traditional? Serve your guests a pretzel with their own side of cheese sauce for dipping.

The options are endless. These snacks will not only fill your guests up, they will make them feel like they're at the game. No matter who you're cheering for, food always brings people together.

Pretzels are a staple for most concession stands. They are a comfort food at sporting events that can also be very versatile. The all mighty salted pretzel can be adapted by adding toppings or a variety of dips to choose from. When it comes to toppings, think of it like a pizza. You can charge an additional 50 cents per topping you add. This can be as simple as sprinkling cheese on before you bake it. Other toppings along with cheese can include pepperoni, jalapenos, and bacon. Another option can be shake on flavors. We offer a number of different flavors to "shake" things up.

Aside from toppings, a great alternative to have is different sauces to dip your pretzel into. The traitional salted pretzel is always delicious with cheese or mustard. Those two dips alone can be changed in many ways inclucing queso, spicy nacho, blue cheese, honey mustard, spicy brown mustard, and dijon mustard. Depending on the flavors of pretzel you chooce to serve, other sauces could include marinara, cream cheese, caramel, chocolate, ranch, bbq, vanilla icing, garlic butter, and many more. The options are endless!
