A Big Game party is not complete without football friendly food to enjoy!

As Americans spend money on snacks and drinks in preparation for this weekend, DietDetective.com took a look at another cost of Sunday snacking: the calorie cost.

Classic Big Game party staples include pizza, fried chicken and beer. So what does the cost of indulging mean in terms of physical activity?

One slice of Pizza Hut's Pepperoni Lover's pizza is 460 calories. That means you would have to run 141 football fields at an average speed of 5 miles per hour to burn off 3 slices!

Fried chicken packs on the calories as well. Each KFC chicken breast has 520 calories. That translates to 957 touchdown dances to burn off the calories from 2 pieces.

As for beer, each 12 ounce of Budwiser has 145 calories. So if you drink 4 plan on doing the wave more than 2,000 times to melt away those unwanted pounds.
