64 best food, snacks, munchies for the ultimate March Madness feast

I’ve selected eight chips to put out and different dips you need to include.

Classic potato chips: There is no easier snack food to serve than the classic potato chip. Just rip open a bag of your favorite chips and you’re ready for a few hours of hoops.

Wavy potato chips: While the original potato chip is the standard, you could mix up your routine by putting out wavy chips. Ruffles and Wavy Lays are the two best options in this writer’s humble opinion.

Sour Cream and Onion chips: Among the secondary flavors for potato chips, one of the most popular is sour cream and onion. Make sure you have a bag of those available if you’re having friends over to watch the Madness with you.

Doritos: Any nacho chip could fit the bill here, but the gold standard of this category are Doritos. A bag of regular Doritos offers a cheesy alternative to regular chips.

Tortilla Chips: If you plan on serving dip at your viewing party, you need the right chips to dip. Finding a good brand of tortilla chips is essential, and there are plenty of good options out there.

Trail Mix: This may not technically be a chip, but a good trail mix offers a varied mix of salty snacks in one bag. If you don’t prefer classic trail mix, Chex Mix is another crowd pleaser.

Pretzel Sticks: Sticking with the salty theme, another go-to snack for any amateur party thrower are pretzel sticks. Whether you go for thick sticks or thin, make sure you have pretzel sticks in your spread.

Sourdough Pretzels: Perhaps the most underrated pretzel is the sourdough pretzel, which offers a unique twist on the taste of pretzels. Sourdough pretzels are the perfect compliment to those looking for something besides a regular potato chip.
