This Tiny State Crushes Super Bowl Pizza List And Illinois Fans Cry Foul

I'm all for a good slice of pizza on Super Bowl Sunday, but this study is one of the zaniest things ever.

Pizza Trends on Super Bowl Sunday: A Surprising Study

Using Google Trends, Delish looked at the last 10 Super Bowls to see which states want more pizza.

Somehow, Delaware took the top spot. Maybe it's the small population size, skewed by a few groups that really love pizza, bending the curve their way. The truth is, Philadelphia pizza searches are under Delaware, so while it might not be grading the results on a scale, this news really throws a ranch, uh, wrench, into the whole thing.

Delaware Takes the Top Spot: Insights and Analysis

Michigan is second overall, followed by Pennsylvania. Both states, while I'm sure they have some decent pizza somewhere, should probably not rank anywhere near the top.

Ranking States: Michigan, Pennsylvania, and the Pizza Landscape

If you're wondering where Illinois is, the Land of Lincoln ranked 9th, and the two states with two cities bigger than Chicago (New York and California) didn't even make the top ten.

Conclusion: A Grain of Salt and Pizza Spirit

I guess that's why it's better to take these results with a grain of salt and add some pepper and sausage before getting too concerned about Illinois' apparent waning interest in eating pizza on Super Bowl Sunday.

So even if Delaware wins (on a technicality), you still know the folks in our great state show up and show out for pizza during big game day.
