Avacados- is it just me...

[Whatwouldscullydo]

Or do they taste of nothing these days? Ive never been a massive fan but wanting to add some healthy fats to a meal or two i gave one a go. What a waste of calories...it tasted of nothing. What happened?

I wish they would put a different toy in them, my dc have enough of those wooden bouncy balls.

Salt and lime is nicer than salt and lemon.

Get them from a Caribbean or ethnic market. Much nicer.

My tastebuds aren't what they were but I love the texture of a just ripe avocado, preferably in a baguette with tomatoes and cheddar. I find Tescos and Sainsbury's "ripe and ready to eat" are usually just that.

They’re not good at the moment. Just made some lime guacamole for fajitas tonight and one was just rock hard.

Ripe and ready in my Ocado shop are lovely.

I’ve always found them tasteless and I hate the texture

Same 😢 with fruit too 😅 baby brain is real

I really like avocado, but recently I heard someone describe them as tasting like “clean penis”.

It’s been difficult to look at them in the same way since.

...and now you have poisoned our minds too! 🤣🤣🤣

It's not just you! I used to love avacados and they made salads amazing but I hardly buy them any more... bigger stones, ripe on the outside but rock hard in the middle... tasteless, strong... maybe they're being forced for mass production and they just aren't as good...I don't know but I definitely agree with you!

God every single post here correct.

Bloody avocados. Bastards the lot of them

So today's example, I do my normal cutting open and try to twist off which is what I normally do. I usually then stab at the stone with the heel of the knife and rhe stone slips out. Easy Peasy

Not today. Not only would the fruit not twist in half, each side was wedded to the stone, stuck fast. Never had that before

Then half of it was rotten inside.

And then the bits I did managed to salvage, tasteless. Waste of time

So, yes, either rock solid or by the time you manage to think its ripe enough its black inside. And if you manage to get any flavour out of it you're onto a winner.

I tend to use it now in place of mayo or where I need mush of some sort.

AvOcado, please!

I only like them in guacamole. My husband makes an amazing one.

Ive taken to buying it ready mashed up in the deli section. Cant be bothered anymore

I agree. I've stopped buying them.

Best of both worlds 🤣
