Guacamole Day

A Flavor Worth Celebrating

Guacamole has been around for centuries, tracing its roots back to the Aztecs, who mashed avocados with spices long before it became a modern staple. Today, September 16 is dedicated to celebrating this iconic dish—timed perfectly with peak avocado season and, fittingly, Mexico’s Independence Day.

In 2025, guac is more than a dip—it’s a global favorite. From taco shops in Los Angeles to high-end restaurants in Tokyo, guacamole brings people together with its perfect mix of creamy avocado, zesty lime, and a kick of chili. Whether it’s traditional, chunky, or loaded with creative twists like mango, bacon, or truffle oil, guac continues to prove itself as the king of dips.

Vibes

Fresh, flavorful, and festive—comfort food with global swagger.

How to Celebrate

Host a taco night or fiesta and feature guac as the star dish

Pair guac with margaritas, chips, or even as a topping on burgers and sandwiches

Pulse Check

Do you like your guac smooth and classic—or chunky and bold with extra toppings?

Like any great dish, guacamole adapts to taste, culture, and creativity while staying true to its roots.
