"The Pit Stop celebrates the convenience of WHOLLY® GUACAMOLE products while giving local residents a fun and socially distanced way to enjoy our favorite food on this annual holiday."
Any donated overripe avocados will be responsibly repurposed or composted and sent to Recycle Revolution Dallas. To ensure safety and limited contact for visitors, all foods will be offered in closed, tamper-proof containers—perfect for on the go. In addition to promoting social distancing with signage, floor decals and line control, all staff will be wearing masks and gloves, and there will be hand sanitizer on-site.
