Snack Food Stadium
It's by far the most decadent snack option suggested, but the weblog Holy Taco's Snack Food Stadium—made from ingridients including guacamole, sausages, twinkies, cheese, and chips (and pictured here)—was recommended by both Patrick Stephens and ZimraanAgraulus. Amazing.
Sugar and Spice Glazed Pecans
SuperTuna suggests some Sugar and Spice Glazed Pecans:
8 oz. pecans (halves or pieces)
4 tbsp. margarine
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 tsp. cinnamon Melt margarine in bowl in microwave. Stir in sugar and cinnamon and microwave on high 1 1/2 minutes. Stir pecans into mixture and microwave on high for 3 minutes, stirring once or twice. Spread pecans on waxed paper. Serve warm or cold. Store in jar with tight fitting lid.
Armadillo Eggs4 tbsp. margarine
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 tsp. cinnamon Melt margarine in bowl in microwave. Stir in sugar and cinnamon and microwave on high 1 1/2 minutes. Stir pecans into mixture and microwave on high for 3 minutes, stirring once or twice. Spread pecans on waxed paper. Serve warm or cold. Store in jar with tight fitting lid.
FrankBurns' Armadillo Eggs are a greasy spoon lovers' dream:
Taco meat and cheese stuffed into a jalapeno, coated with corn bread batter and deep fried.
Served with dipping sauce of your choice. I prefer cilantro infused ranch.
If you make this, do not use store bought Jalapenos. They are wax coated and the batter will not stick. You gotta get them from a farmers market or someone who grows them themselves.

My favorite and most popular super bowl snack has been something I've called pigskins.
It's basically a cross between a deviled egg and a baked potato.
You take 1-2 dozen egg sized potatos, and boil til soft.
Cut them all in half and use a melon baller to scoop out the middle of each. take all the potato guts you scooped out and mix it in a bowl with some cooked beef, sour cream, and chives. I used salt, pepper, and some cumin to taste. I also added crumbled bacon, but it works better on top.
Take this mix and plop it back into your potatoes. It helps to slice off the bottom of the potato halves so they stay standing up.
It's not a bad idea to give them a bit of time in the over after, or to put bacon or cheese on top.
Voila, you've got a delicious and not terrible for you finger snack.
