Frozen avocado is a good alternative for guacamole.

When I go out for lunch I often select dishes with avocado since it's so difficult to find good ones from the grocery store.

Buy firm avocados, let them ripen on your counter

We buy them all the time for our little one, probably threw a couple Hundred eurobucks in avocados in the trash last year because of bad spots.

Avocados are overrated and overpriced near tasteless mush that has to pair with something else to be anything worth eating.

If you think theyre near tasteless, its because youve never had a good one.

Not entirely sure we are even eating the same fruit; from what I understand the Cali/Mexican Avocados that we get here on the West Coast taste pretty different from what most people get, even on the East Coast of the US.. not sure what they are like in Germany.

I do like olives though.

IIRC most avocados here come from Israel or Peru(?), but point taken.

Greek olives though. :mouf

i'm fairly certain like 80-90% of avocados in the us are imported from our southern neighbors and if they are domestically grown, more likely than not they're from california.
