The Craziest Super Bowl Food Concoctions: Bacon Explosion, Football Cheese And More

Despite all the press releases we've received this year touting healthy Super Bowl fare, we're firmly convinced that people are content to participate in a gorge-fest this Sunday (if not during the Super Bowl, then when?). Thus, HuffPost Food has assembled some of the most extreme Super Bowl creations we could find -- from cheese that looks like a football to a seven-layer dip that looks like a playing field. Not all of these recipes may whet your appetite, but they at least deserve props for creativity. We know there's more out there, so don't hesitate to contact us with your own submission.

Check out some crazy Super Bowl concoctions below:

Does anyone else get a little creeped out that these massive food creations have the food sitting out too long? Maybe I'm just picky about that, but those stacked sandwich's have to get pretty dried out.

Oh I am sure the guys from EpicMealTime.com will come up with something bigger.

There is no way Bacon Explosion has just 5,000 calories. If I were to guess, I would say the entire concoction is 25,000 calories!!

If you are refering to Bacon Explosion, your life will end soon.

Yowza? What is this, Amos 'n' Andy?

Oh, my! And what are we scorching Paula Dean about again?

[grailknight]

Because she does it every day and make a profit on both bad nutrition and pharma.

I'm not a Dean fan, never have been, but I hate to see people getting overly beat up on in the media. In her case, it's a bit of overkill.

They all look delicious for once a year treat except that Mexican Salad. How are you supposed to eat the "salad" from so many separate layers in such a deep bowl?

I could care less about the super bowl but that bacon thing above looks so yummy!

That bacon thing is your certificate of death, if you eat it

Only if you eat it all. One piece will not kill you. People, everything that lives dies. You can be as healthy as you want but when it is your time to pass on.....Adios. I personally have known vegans who have died. It do not get much healthier than that. Does anyone remember that the gentleman who wrote the book on jogging died.....jogging? I now doctors who eat what they want, when they want. Why? Because there is only so much medicine can cure. If all the health conscious information was so correct, hospitals would be empty.

I make it every year for Daytona....it is awesome!! Serve it on hot Grand biscuits!!

Let me rephrase that; If you have high blood presure, or any kind of a heart condition, that Bacon Explosion is your ticket to certain death.

For 2 weeks, I have eaten nothing except lean meat, fruits, veggies, and nuts. Why did I look at this page? That was very stupid of me. I'm thinking my after handful of almonds isn't going to seem as tasty now...

[mcinnisja]

Good news. The National Institute of Health reports that in order to optimize the nutritional value of almonds, they must be consumed with a large quantity of hot fudge, preferably in conjunction with a dairy product such as ice cream.

don't stop,you are doing great.the thing is to stop seeing this kind of thing as food.it's not food,it's the result of a lot of pain and suffering of sentient beings and it's definately not healthy,that has been proven over and over.i used to eat everything up until three years ago when i woke up and realized what i was doing and went stricly vegan.it was the best decision that i ever made and i will never go back to eating(or wearing etc)animal products.my entire psychology has changed,my health has vastly improved. http://www.cancerproject.org/diet_cancer/diet/elevated_hormones.php

I was notorious for my Super Bowl pizzas back in the 70's & 80's. You can guess the "secret ingredient" in the sauce. We would have as many topping options as the number of the Super Bowl. I thought about that last week. Now think, 40-some topping options! Let the games begin.

Oregano?

[camanokat]

You put the sacred herb in your sauce? Ack! Sounds lovely.

[pagangrandma]

03:42 PM on 02/03/2012

I used to make spaghetti sauce with the 'herb', way back when it was cheap enough to use like that. I was famous for my Devilled Eggs with a "secret ingredient", too.

Hey, it's one day a year and it's the Super Bowl, not a cricket match where you eat cucumber sandwiches and crumpets while sipping your Earl Gray tea.

[steelebook]

cucumber sandwiches made with whole wheat, please. . .
