Love them plain, in salads; in guacamole especially.

You can slather them on your skin too. They're moisturizing. Yes, really.  8)

I really like them. But where we live it is hard to get  some great ones. Seems like our grocery store just can't get good. they turn ripe overnight and have bad spots on them. So I wait  until we go out of town for something and then  buy good  ones,  Of course  that only last about a week and then they are all gone because we have ate them. Loved it when we lived down in the southern part of the state this man would come over every week from Az. and would have nice big ones and taste so good because they were fresh. He could count on selling a pickup bed full of them in just a few hours be on his way back home.

I'm not big on avocados I will eat it sometimes in tacos with other items but just to have one by itself I'm just not a big fan

The only thing I don't understand is why people mix them with other food, when they taste so much better when you cut them in half and scoop it out with a spoon (with just a little salt and pepper or Tajin on them)

I love them, but my husband doesn't.  So I can't use them as much as I would like.

I like them also, use a lot in salads and sometimes just slice & make a part of the meal I am having.

I knew they were good for you but I wasn't sure why. I just found some frozen ones and I a going to give them a try. On the package there was a recipe for avocado pie, it didn't look bad.

 I know there are  many health benefits two avocados. However, I do not like them at all.  :rainbow: :rose: :wave:

That is interesting! I have heard a lot about them but I have not tried any myself. Heard you have to acquire a taste for it.
