LOL.
One of my favorite Mexican restaurants ever uses green peas in their guacamole to cut down on how much avocado they use. They've been making it that way for over 30 years, and it's absolutely fucking DELICIOUS. It's so good, I reverse engineered it at home so I can make it myself. They serve it as a dip on the table with the salsa.
Also, avocado prices aren't spiraling because of the demand, they're spiraling because there wasn't a good crop this year. There was too much late rain this spring as the fruits were developing, and a lot of them rotted on the tree before they could mature. Same thing happened with the cherry crop this year.

Based knowledge anon spitting facts

How many will die in the upcoming avocado toast famine?

>>12696123
>Same thing happened with the cherry crop this year
shit- ranier cherries too?
My bro and I like to go on a summer produce roadtrip where we buy inhuman quantities of peaches and ranier cherries.

>>12696135
I need this every day to live.

>>12696139
Yeah. They got too much rain at the wrong time, and whole orchards of cherries just rotted on the trees. It was a sad fucking sight. You can still find some, but they won't be as cheap or plentiful as they normally are.
However, the peaches and plums this year are fucking ACES. Best peach crop I've seen in a few years. Really juicy and sweet.

>>12696123
Somebody better not tell this guy about mushy peas.

Also, glad I wasn't tripping when I saw cherry prices this year. Forget Okanagan, even Raniers were scarce.

>Somebody better not tell this guy about mushy peas.

>>12696142
This makes me irrationally angry

Once when I was grocery shopping while vary tired I grabbed one of these kind of things by accident. Words don't describe how bad it is.

>>12696123
Recipe?

>>12696103
fucking zoomers bought out all avocado toast
save the planet, kill a zoomer

>>12696213
it obviously didn't melt before you tard.

>>12696123
>>12696238
Yeah tell us more about this, seems like a perfect thing both if you're poor and in itself.

>>12696238
I'd imagine you'd just fold avocadoes into mushy peas.

Mushy peas is pretty easy. Soak your peas overnight in water with a tablespoon of baking soda. Drain, then boil until tender. Strain off most of the water, then bring it back to a boil and simmer for awhile. Then mash them.

You'd probably want to let them cool down. I'd imagine you'd go at them with an immersion blender, too, for that creamy texture.

>>12696286
This sounded weird at first, but it makes sense. Avocados have basically zero flavor, so replacing a certain amount of the guac with peas would just make it seem like really flavorful guac.

>>12696238
>>12696281
1. Make a salsa verde with tomatillos, poblano peppers, onion, cilantro, and jalapenos or serranos (you can also just buy one of those small cans of salsa verde, but it won't taste as fresh)
2. Cook some frozen peas until tender.
3. Use equal amounts of peas to avocados (so you're cutting your avocado amount by half)
4. In a food processor or blender, blend peas, avocado, salsa verde to taste, lime juice, and salt to taste.
5. Chill in the fridge for a couple hours so the flavors can all blend well.
6. You can also add some sour cream to this to make it extra creamy if you like.

>>12696528
Oh wow we're talking equal amounts

>>12696103
Its fake news.

>>12696541
Yeah, but if you want to use more avocado and less peas, you can. Half and half is the largest ratio to use before you start tasting more peas when you eat it. When avocados are priced highest, I'll use half and half, when I can get low priced avocados, I'll use a little more.

>>12696213
Nit real cheese

>>12696528
Sour cream. KYS.

>>12696103
I live in America, so yes.

>>12696570

>>12696142
whoever that is he deserves to be flogged

>>12696142
it's marshmellow from fortnite !

>tastes the same

>>12696142
Caviar. My posterior.

>>12696649
Even adding it is retarded

>>12696191
>>12696149

>>12696286
>boil all the nutrients out
is this why bongistanis look sickly and deformed? you're disgusting

>>12696528
Bless you guaca-pea anon, thank you for the recipe.

>>12696649
Some people have terminal brainletness. It cannot be helped.

>>12696666
Food fraud

>>12696883
Food safety.

Besides, you hydrolize the proteins for better nutrition uptake.

Based, fuck avacados, they are too expensive and take too much water to make. Dumb zoomers gonna drain the world of water.

>>12696666
If the advertising is clear then no one should care. But if they're advertising one thing and selling you something else they should get shit on.

Pick related is also food fraud.

>>12696883
You're mentally ill.

>>12696920
He doesnt kniw shit about food science

>>12696528
Not who asked for it but, cheers anon thanks for the idea/recipe.

>>12696103
Just buy a deep frozen pizza. 80% chance it got surrogate cheese on it.

>>12696135

kek

>>12696659

that's why he wears the mask. he knows he'd be hunted down and forced to eat nothing but impossible meat

>>12696992
Based thankful anon

>almost year 2020
>nobody has solved this low yield crop problem
>not having cheap ass avocado all year round
>living in this shit timeline

>>12697141
We did solve it. The stuff used to do it causes all kinds of fucked up side effects

>>12696213
>Now Melts!
Every time

>>12696103

a hundred years from now nobody will eat animals or fish. impossible meats, fish, eggs, etc will be the norm

>>12697231
Na, they'll eat bugs and rodent cause the soil will be too strained to feed cattle and potable water will be so expensive it'll be for human consumption only.

>>12696528
>salsa verde and cream in guac

Disgusting.

He'd probably moan with pleasure from flogging.

>>12696103
Does cheese count?

>>12696103

there are places that sell "crab" meat but it's actually krab

>>12696918
This shit is food fraud? Is it not egg free or something?

>>12696142
This man needs to be boiled alive.

>>12697675
Quite the opposite; making your logo an egg and calling it "Just Mayo" would make the average person assume there IS eggs in it.
