Avocado. I heard much about these fruits/berries/whatever. But I am a poor guy from a very poor and totally non-tropical country. So apples and carrots are the sweetest things around and apples become too expensive too.
Still I bought a few. Just out of curiosity. It tastes like… butter block. Internet says that it should be this way. So… Why people eat it? Maybe it is bad alone and\or raw, but after some preparation it is delicious?
Am I missing something?
We see a lot of BLTA’s at restaurants here in the US: a BLT with a couple slices of avocado on top. I’d give that a try as well. Also when checking for ripeness, I usually press the stem area with my thumb slightly. If it gives a little bit, it’s good to go. If it’s rock hard, skip it.
