Guacamole

I was once at a party where they had Mexican food. Burritos with chips and dip. One of the dips were "guacamole." The reason for the quotations is because it was just mashed up avocados. What exactly is guacamole?
Wikipedia definition: Guacamole is an avocado-based dip that originated in Mexico.[1] It is traditionally made by mashing ripe avocados with a molcajete (mortar and pestle) with salt. Some recipes call for limited tomato, onion, garlic, lime juice or lemon juice, and/or seasonings.
