We've scouted the aisles of our favorite grocery stores in search of the most enticing new snacks, perfect for munching from kickoff to the final seconds of the game. As you shop ahead of your Super Bowl party, keep a lookout for these latest arrivals.

Doritos has once again launched a new flavor, just in time for the big game. Unlike some of the wilder Doritos varieties of the past, this one is more of a sure bet. The new Doritos Sweet & Tangy BBQ chips are dusted with a blend of molasses, paprika and tomato powder, combining for a smoky, satisfying umami-packed crunch. Keep your eyes peeled at the local grocery store for these. A 9.25-ounce bag costs $3.48 at Walmart, while the bigger party size is $4.48 at Sam's Club. Careful, you may find yourself fighting over them.

The Super Bowl is often associated with chicken wings, ribs, chili, and all sorts of meat-laden meals, which can make things tricky if you are a vegetarian. Luckily, Trader Joe's just launched a new frozen meal—a Vegetarian Meatless Cheeseburger Pizza for $5.99—to spice things up on Super Bowl Sunday. Keep in mind, however, that fans on social media have noted that this item is not fully vegan.
