March 23rd is National Chips and Dip Day. And that’s the perfect excuse to talk about food cravings. That’s because most people have experienced these at one point or another. In fact, most people have them pretty regularly. And, chip and dip are just one of those things you crave (especially if you’ve got a Mad Dog chip and dip recipe).

The last stretch of winter always seems the hardest. It may not be the coldest time (though this year has been a bit crazy), but everyone is just so tired of the long nights and freezing temperatures. And, there aren’t all those wonderful holidays to break the drudgery of brushing snow from your car twice a day.

We’re a hot sauce company from Massachusetts, so it shouldn’t be a surprise that we’re super excited to celebrate National Crab Day on March 9th. It’s a biggie for the Mad Dog hot sauce crew. We love crabs. Well, maybe we don’t love them like we snuggle up to our pets, but we certainly love them on our plate. And, we’re always on the lookout for the best way to add our hot sauce to favorite crab recipes. We’ve even created one using our Mad Dog 357 Silver Collector’s Edition hot sauce (but, more on that in a minute).

We’re serious; March 3rd is all about celebrating cold cuts. You know - those thin slices of meat you find in the deli section of your grocery store. Why do we need a National Cold Cuts Day (and why are we celebrating it Mad Dog Style?) It’s not that strange when you think about it. We all (meaning anyone that eats meat) enjoy these thin slices of ham, turkey, and beef. And yet, they get plenty of bad press.
