                                Various reports and surveys, including one by the Calorie Control Council, suggest the average American consumes well over 2,400 calories—more than a full day's recommended amount—during the Super Bowl game. For many, the annual championship event is not just a game but also one of the biggest eating holidays of the year, rivaling or even exceeding Thanksgiving in some estimates.
