With Super Bowl LVIII just around the corner, it’s time for party planners to start thinking about their menu. Wells Fargo’s recent report sheds light on the economics of game-day feasts. While some ingredients have become more budget-friendly compared to last year, others have seen an uptick in prices.

According to Wells Fargo’s Chief Agricultural Economist, there are some favorable deals available for those considering chicken wings and shrimp. Fresh chicken wings now cost 5% less than they did a year ago, while frozen wings have seen an even more substantial price drop, with an 11% decrease. Shrimp lovers can also rejoice, as shrimp prices have, on average, fallen by 6.4% compared to last January. However, not all meats are on the same trajectory, as steak and beef prices remain on the higher side.

Planning your Super Bowl party menu strategically can help you maximize savings, especially with the reduced costs of chicken wings and shrimp. These popular game-day snacks have become more affordable, allowing party hosts to stretch their budgets further while satisfying their guests’ cravings.
