Hormel Foods' Wholly Guacamole brand recently introduced a range of new Simply Avocado dips and spreads, which offer creamy alternatives to [chunky guacamole](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/homestyle-guacamole).

Of the new products that have been unveiled, several of them are flavored. This includes varieties such as Jalapeño Lime, Roasted Red Pepper and Garlic Herb, as well as a Just Avocado option that contains only avocado.

Avocado toast has emerged over the past few years as a [superfood snack](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/simply-snacks) that is healthy and simple to prepare. With these new [avocado spreads](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/avowich), consumers are saved the hassle of peeling, cutting and mashing an avocado for the preparation of a nourishing snack. Wholly Guacamole describes notes that these products provide "avocado that waits for you, and not the other way around."
