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?
Don’t think of them as fruits. It’s more like a very rich, creamy vegetable.
By itself it has a mild nutty flavour. When ripe enough to mash, you make guacamole (tonatoes, onion, salt, and freah lime juice) and it becomes amazing.
But on its own, not groundbreaking.
