Do people actually like it, or is it just a bunch of weekend vegans trying to impress similar douchebags on instagram?

I just tried my first one. It wasn't as dark as pic related, but it seemed to be ripe. Cut it up, peeled off the skin, cut the rest into chunks, took a bite and... it's a bland, slimy mess. Basically no flavor at all. Even the stories of the heinously bitter skin were overexaggerated.

I use really ripe avocado (grey strands just appearing) with canned salmon, using the avocado creaminess to offset the dry and bland texture of the canned fish. I haven't had that combo in a while, thanks for reminding me to make some.

Can you imagine eating something for actual nutrition and nourishment instead of flavor like a disgusting fat pig?

Try a little salt and a bit of lime juice. Pepper if you feel adventurous. I see them as balls (lol, no homo guys) of potassium because I am a keto.

A great avocado can be eaten alone, but you won't find many of these anywhere, unless in a country that grows them, right off a small local production.

Run of the mill avocados are alright, but are better with extra stuff, such as the classic guacamole. Don't waste your time eating avocados raw, they're not worth it.

Not even a big avocado guy, but you have to season that shit, you idiot.

How stupid is the argument of, "Oh, but you'll eventually die", as if the same is not true of the person saying it?

Seems like kind of a moot point, since avocados taste really good.

I mean, in terms of raw sauces, guac is maybe a tier below pesto, which isn't bad at all.

Necessary green goop to hold some other tasty ingredients together, is how Ray Smuckles described avocados (and the resulting guacamole).

Add a little salt and lime. Throw in some diced onion and jalapeno if you feel adventurous.
