Google makes searching for NFL Super Bowl LI food recipes even better

This Sunday, many people around the world will tune into Super Bowl LI. The annual NFL championship has become something of a holiday in the USA, as people have parties and cook special foods. In fact, some people are more interested in the eating aspect (and commercials), as opposed to the actual football game. While I personally enjoy watching the big game (Jets fan rooting for Falcons), I'd be lying if I said I wasn't also excited for chicken wings and taco dip.

If you will be cooking or preparing snacks for the Super Bowl, Google has a new way for you to interact with online recipe searches. When using the company's search app for food recipes, you will be treated to an all-new carousel interface.

"If you're huddling your team together for the big game this Sunday, chances are you're looking for a lineup of recipes that's sure to win. Enter Google's latest version of recipe search. Now when you're searching on the Google app for a particular recipe, you'll see a carousel of tappable suggestions to make sure you catch the best recipe to suit your taste buds and kitchen skills," says Duncan Osborn, Product Manager, Google Search.

Osborn further shares, "If you're planning to make seven-layered dip, a quick search will bring up options ranging from 'healthy' to 'vegan' to 'bean dip' or 'taco dip' (to name a few). Or type 'chicken wings' into the Google app to bring up all kinds of crowd pleasers. Once you select your flavor or category, you'll see top recipes from a wide variety of sources with easy-to-read step-by-step instructions. So whether you're calling a play for sticky honey-soy or buffalo, your wings are sure to score some points."

While this is a really cool feature, I take issue with the search giant suggesting healthy choices. After all, the Super Bowl is all about eating unhealthy things. I eat celery with my wings under protest! But seriously folks, whether you want to eat healthy things or bad things, Google's new functionality should make the search experience better. Who can argue with that?
