Did You Know?
This year's Super Bowl may have a lot of blue and orange, but you can make your watch party green!

Keep these tips in mind when planning and you could host a sustainable Super Bowl party.
Avoid Using Plastic Bags
While you shop for your food and decor, skip the plastic grocery bags and bring your reusable totes.

Studies show utilizing reusable shopping bags can save an average of 5,000 plastic bags!
 
Use Your Everyday Table Setting and Buy in Bulk


Using paper and plastic might seem easier from a cleanup perspective, but they generate significant waste. Use actual dishes, utensils and glassware instead and don’t overlook cloth napkins.

Opt for purchasing sides and snacks in bulk, which reduces packaging and allows for leftovers!
Reduce Food Waste
Ask your guests to bring their reusable containers to keep your fridge from overflowing after the game.

One tool that can assist in calculating how much food to purchase and prepare is The Guest-imator. Once you've finalized your guest count, use this to plan how much everyone will eat and how many meals you'll have left over!
