Google releases ‘uniquely searched Super Bowl recipes’ by state, says Nevada searched for ‘potato’

In some parts of the country, there’s nothing better than eating a good old-fashioned potato for the Super Bowl. But when it comes to home cooking for the big game, chili reigns supreme.

The map, compiled by Google Trends, shows “relatively uniquely searched Super Bowl recipes by state” over the past week.

Chili was apparently popular enough to warrant its own category.

Texas, Arkansas, Missouri, Minnesota, Michigan, Wisconsin Pennsylvania, New York and Massachusetts are all listed as chili states. Interestingly, Illinois’ most searched for recipe is listed as “Philly Cheese Steak,” while Philadelphia’s home state of Pennsylvania is more interested in chili.

In terms of dip, Google says New Jersey, Connecticut and Virginia are intent on cooking up Buffalo chicken dip, while Maryland (not surprisingly) is listed as a crab dip state along with South Carolina.

There are, however, some surprises. Apparently, residents in Nevada and Idaho (of course) are simply searching for “potato.” In Wyoming, the top searched recipe is reportedly “ground beef.” Meanwhile, up in Alaska, people were apparently preparing to make “dill pickle with beef dip” for the big game.

While the map was prepared by Google, other studies has shown different findings. According to a study by Bid-on-Equipment that ranked each state’s favorite snacks (as opposed to what recipes they were looking up), Nevada is a Buffalo chicken dip state as opposed to just a “potato” state.
