Guacamole maker, Wholly Guacamole, of Fort Worth, TX, is offering up a special chip dip recipe for football fans to dip into while they watch their beloved football teams take the field.

Gridiron Game Time Dip looks about as good as any.

I absolutely cannot make guacamole, though I have tried many times. It always comes out tasting like mushed avocadoes instead of guacamole, if that makes any sense. That's why companies like Wholly Guacamole exist, so that culinary screw-ups like me can eat the green stuff too.

I may have to try this recipe (or get the wife to make it for me), and see if it makes watching a Chargers game anymore palatable...
