I like dip. A lot. Onion dip is always a big hit, but I also really like hot artichoke dip (SHOCKING I KNOW) and my mama's chili dip that is a can of chili no beans and a brick of cream cheese all heated up, served with scoops (Frito or Tostito, take your pick).
in Texas there's a small chain called "Chuy's" - where Jenna Bush was drinking underage before getting pulled for DUI - there's a couple of place in Austin and Houston (and Dallas?) - anyways they have this jalapeno ranch, which oddly you need to ask for every time, but its always free and everyone gets it so I don't get the needing to ask part.
I used to make a kick-ass bean dip every New Year's Day which the family would enjoy while watching bowl games. (The tradition ended when I stopped watching bowl games.) Key ingredient was beans although the cheese, jalape├▒os and salsa were also important additions.
FAVORITE DIP
Seven layer. Served with scoops because tort chips donтАЩt stand up to the weight of all those layers.

babaganoush >> hummus (but hummus is still good)
Mrs HSB has a great hummus recipe. I've never tried to make babaganoush.
Mrs HSB will be happy to hear that her cooking/food was complimented!
yes. it is very good, but sort of a runny rendition. not thick and creamy.
let me try to dig up a recipe ..

Simple French Onion with Ruffles.
I make the Hidden Valley Ranch powered dip with sour cream and have it with Krinkle Cut Kettle Chips.
there is particularly satisfying about Ruffles and dips
Smokey Black Bean Dip. So good.

a good tex-mex chili con queso is one of my favorite dip-like things.
no one else in my family seems to care for it, so i usually only get it if i am out alone or with others.
