From Fortune:

Super Bowl Sunday is marked by gorging on snacks and watching the NFL championship, but it comes with a cost. Wells Fargo’s annual survey reveals that Super Bowl snack costs have risen because of food inflation. Fresh chicken wings are cheaper, but potato and tortilla chip prices are up. Avocado dip, beer, and shrimp prices are steady or have decreased. Soft drinks, sirloin steak, and ground beef prices have risen. Alternative beverage choices have led to a decline in soda prices. Canned soft drinks cost more, while two-liter bottles are cheaper.
The higher cost of hosting a Super Bowl party was implied by the well-established food and drink price inflation trend, according to Wells Fargo’s annual survey. Prices for meats like sirloin steak and ground beef were high compared to the year before, while the price of beer has remained consistent. Some other traditional snacks, including potato chips, tortilla chips, and soft drinks, have seen modest price spikes too. There are, however, a few bright spots, like fresh chicken wings and avocado dip, whose prices have dipped.
