I think I'm still in a food/beverage haze from the Super Bowl on Sunday. I posted all the commercials that played yesterday and then I saw this article today. Someone has WAY too much time on their hands! lol

Someone sat down and calculated the total calories if you ate everything that was advertised during the Super Bowl.  Here is how it breaks down: Ad & Calories

Ads during the first quarter:

M&Ms (plain)- 236
Doritos- 137
Pepsi Next- 60
Budweiser Black Crown- 180
Coca Cola- 136
Oreos- 160

FIRST QUARTER TOTAL 909- Half a normal person's daily caloric allowance — in the first half hour of the game.

The second quarter:

Bud Light- 110
Doritos- 137
Milk (a cup of 2 percent)- 122
Coca Cola- 136
Subway (Sweet Onion Teriyaki Footlong)- 760
Taco Bell- (Cherry Limeade Sparkler (150), Steak Chalupa (350) and black beans and rice (200)- 700

SECOND QUARTER TOTAL 1965

Then, there was an ad for milk.  The reporter added the 122 calories in a cup of 2 percent milk .

After that, it was time for the Beyonce halftime show, which was sponsored by Pepsi and therefore had a Pepsi ad before and after. They added two more 12-ounce servings of cola.

The last half of the game featured ads for pistachios, more beer, more soda and more Subway sandwiches.

The last quarter:

Beck's- 149
Soda Stream (a machine, one serving of cola)- 136
