Who doesn’t like a seven-layer dip?
I’m guessing you do, because Google analytics data reveals that party appetizer seven-layer dip is the most popular Super Bowl snack in Seattle.

There are more, as well as many make-at-home recipes you can find with a simple search.
Just don’t pull a George Costanza, the character in Seinfeld who was pilloried for double-dipping at a party. You know better.
