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?
Salt? Hmm… Not sure if you’re joking…
Why would that be a joke??
They aren’t joking but Avacados are never sweet like Apple/grapes/peaches/bananas etc
It’s more for savory dips than sweet things. Id compare its uses more to that of an artichoke
A vinaigrette works too.
One of my favorite snacks as a kid was a slice of bread with avocado smashed up and spread all over it with a sprinkling of salt. I’d fold it in half and dunk it in milk. So good
You had me at the first half
I almost threw up
Avocados are amazing with salt and pepper.
I like an avocado sandwich with garlic salt. super tasty.
Salt is a must if eaten on it’s own. Touch of fresh lime takes it to another level.
No, look up a recipe for a guacamole for instance.
Also you might be eating them before they’re ripe (it can be hard to tell), though I think that’s more a texture thing than taste.
They’re generally better as an ingredient in other dishes. I don’t think many people just sit down and eat one plain.
It’s definitely a taste thing too. Unripe avacados have very little flavor.
