This is Massachusetts’ Favorite Football Snack

For years Massachusetts residents have been hosting football gatherings to watch their beloved New England Patriots, and now we're back at it. Since football fans in Massachusetts are no strangers to a Sunday Funday, it has us wondering, what is their favorite dish to serve? Well, we found out, and I have to say we were surprised and slightly disappointed to find the answer.

The Most Popular Football Snack in Massachusetts

According to Google trends, the most popular Super Bowl food in Massachusetts is....chili?!

Now don't get us wrong, a nice, hearty, well-seasoned bowl of warm chili with a little cheese and cornbread can be pretty spectacular, but it's just not what we think of when we think of the BEST SUPER BOWL FOOD out there. On a cold day tailgating before a game? Sure, it's perfect. But for a Super Bowl party on someone's brand new white couch? Seems dicey.

Buffalo Chicken Dip, Chicken Wings, Seven Layer Dip, and other classics prevailed in other states, but Tennessee was the only other state where chili topped the list.
