In fact, chicken wings continue to be the bestselling snack for game day, according to data collected by the Canadian grocer.

Ribs were a close second, with Canadians buying more than 40,000 racks of ribs prior to the Super Bowl in 2019. Other fan favourites were flat breads (19,000 sold) and prepared hors d’oeuvres (2.9 million sold).

Cheese sticks, meatballs, chili and pulled pork were also popular buys for Canadian football fans last year.
