As a nation we have an insanely weird addiction to guac, so it makes sense to give the appetizer its own holiday. National Guacamole Day is real and it’s happening September 16, which is also Mexico’s independence day. We love avocados so much prices rose up to 125% since the beginning of the year according to ARA (American Restaurant Association). Not sure about you, but I’m still about that extra guac life. “Double scoops sir, thanks.” Good thing these places won’t charge extra. The most delicious places to celebrate National Guacamole Day are:
