| avocados.... I love these things with a major passion. A guy I work with puts the avocado right on his toast...so I tried it.....I have always been a guacamole fan but avocado is so much better without the added guacamole fixings. YUUUUUMMMMY so I eat it like that now all them time. Everyone looks at me like I am such a weirdo... Anyone else do this?? I don't even mind if it is not fully ripe. It has such a wonderful nutty sorta taste.

| I have been seeing this on TV, Kelly Rippa said that after a health segment where they told her avocados were the perfect breakfast food she has been having it on a toasted English muffin every morning, sounds delish, I might have to try it. But Avocados sort of drive me crazy, most of the time they are not ripe when you buy them so you have to plan ahead, then when it ripens and you cut it open it's hard to keep them longer than a day. While I could eat a whole one, they are also fattening so I try to only eat a quarter but since I am the only one in my house that eats them, it's hard to keep them fresh for three more days. I guess I have a love hate relationship with them

| oh I didnt know they were fattening..oh well. I actually can container mine overnight but I also don;t mind if it;s a little brown. I know its only from oxidation so it doesn't totally gross me out. and you are right my husband has had them on the counter all week ripening for me. even the one I had this morning it was half rip half not...hehe. he dislikes them so I am the only one eating it..hmmm I guess it's better than having a bacon egg and cheese sandwich right?? lol

| I eat guacamole on just about everything. My dd makes a great sandwich spread and I like that much better than mayo. On hamburgers, in salad, on mexi food, in relishes, dip, and I want to try the baked ones as seen on Pinterest. Yum! I like to buy them really green. I don't know, I'm kinda a germaphobe. I figure people are not picking up the real green ones (or they were just put out) and feeling and squishing on them. LOL After two nights on the counter they are perfect!

| I am very allergic to Avocados and that kills me because I have had them and I liked them. Enjoy your healthy choice ladies.

| I've eaten it like that before, it's good. I also like it on toast with tomato and cheese (and sometimes bacon). Mmmmmmm I'm dying for a Jersey tomato. I hate hard boiled egg yolks and egg salad, but this was actually really good Avocado Egg Salad | Skinnytaste |

| I mostly use the large bright green Florida avocados, less fat and a lighter taste.We had some last year from a friends tree that weighed over 2 1/2 pounds! If you have some getting brown and need to use it up, put it in your blender fruit shakes! The creamy texture is amazing! |
