Guacamole is one of the most beloved snack foods. Whether enjoyed with tortilla chips or scooped on a burrito or taco salad, there are so many ways to enjoy this spicy, savory treat. But what may be even better than enjoying a guacamole appetizer at happy hour or taco night is when that guacamole is free.

National Guacamole Day is being celebrated on September 16. In recognition, restaurants nationwide will have some spicy deals and discounts.

Chipotle is expanding its Chipotle Goods Avocado Dye Line, a line of apparel that's dyed with upcycled avocado pits from Chipotle restaurants. More interested in the guacamole? We get it.
