Ask the Guac Doc


For Superbowl Sunday, it's all about the Guac.

Guy Fieri solves your guacamole dip dilemmas on FoodNetwork.com here, answering questions like:

What type of avocado makes the best guacamole? How do I choose avocados at the grocery store? How can I tell when an avocado is ripe? How do I cut up an avocado? And what is in classic guacamole? How can I make the ingredients shine?

Enter the Guac of Fame Contest here. Upload a photo of your guacamole and tell FoodNetwork.com why your guacamole should reign supreme. If your dip dominates the competition, you could win a signed copy of Guy Fieri's Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives book.
