I've really really tried but I still don't see why avocados are so popular.

>> No.12367601

I've never had avocado, but the faggotstorm surrounding them prevents me from ever wanting to try one.

I won the literal lottery once. I bought a large hass and it didn't have a seed. Pure, high octane, delicious avo. No seed.

Because they're fucking delicious. I grew up in Texas, and live in California now, and I've eaten avocados my entire life, and I still never get tired of them. There's so much you can do with them. And they're like delicious vegetable butter. If you have some avocados that aren't getting soft, you should try quick pickling them, fucking delicious.

As an avocado hater, let me hit you with some knowledge. Good guacamole is the shit. I've never really had good guacamole in my life. However, I made my own recently because I figured I might enjoy it this time. I did it real simple. Avocado, lime juice and a little lemon juice, sea salt, black pepper, small dice of red onion, cumin, and some cilantro and a few other small spices like garlic and whatnot. It was fucking killer. Probably the best guacamole I've ever had in my life.

Every other guacamole I've ever had has always been extremely plain, or slightly good and edible on some chips or whatever, but nothing as good as what I made.

If you hate avocado; and I still hate a plain avocado, they're shit and totally overrated, try making some good guacamole, it might change your mind.

If hipsters want to allow me to have cheap avocado, then it's fine with me.

Imagine being such a fucking loser that you refuse to try a food because it's too popular.

Yeah, exactly. I have no idea why people expect plain avocados to be TASTE EXPLOSIONS any more than a spoonful of cooking oil would be. How many people bite into a raw tomato?

Try zesting the lime into the guac next time.

Both of these.
You know why your homemade guac was good?
Fresh cilantro and lime juice. It's the combo
>a spoonful of cooking oil
Describes avocado which are far less useful than cooking oil.
They are good in one thing.
>guacamole

In greece they are pretty profitable to cultivate recently due to their popularity in europe as a trendy and healthy food, those that planted trees a decade or two ago reap the benefits today.
They are kinda like big olives, I like to cut them, let them soak in vinegar salt and sugar and add in salad

Tomatoes are fucking delicious man.

Yeah, acid and salt are the most important. We do lime juice and salt, but it's basically the same formula.

They’re creamy and have good nutrients, it’s something you add to other food to give it more texture or a sort of buffer for strong flavors and it’s not bad for you
