I thought it was only if it was smashed?

I’ve got big strong teeth that can tear through ripe avocado
No need to splurge on the “smashed” up charge…

I used to think I hated avocado because I associated it with guac which always had cilantro. When I actually had avocado alone I was massively surprised and elated.

I used to dislike guacamole until I went to Mexico and tasted guacamole with more lime juice than I’d previously had.

I make guac with mint sometimes.

[–] ccunning@lemmy.world 2 points 23 hours ago

I can vouch for this.

My wife is Thai and in Thailand they have a whole class of dishes called “yam”(ยำ)^*^ which is typically a salad (not in the leafy greens sense) typically dressed with fish sauce, lime, and chilis and commonly containing mint, onion, lemon grass, Chinese celery, along with a protein. And if you sub avocado for the protein it’s absolutely amazing.

^*^ ^it’s^ ^the^ ^same^ ^”yam”^ ^as^ ^Tom^ ^Yam^ ^(ต้มยำ)^ ^soup^ ^which^ ^translates^ ^to^ ^”Boiled^ ^Yam”^

For me, all guac really needs is salt and lime. Maaaaaybe some onion if you have it.

I feel like folks over engineer their guac. After the onion, it’s all diminishing returns.

As a cilantro fiend, all I need for something to be guac is avocado, cilantro, and lime 😅.

Different tastes for different folks, I guess.

Even though coffee and avocados come from Latin America, the salt and pepper makes it feel like it's from the United States.

How's the rent life? Lol
