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?


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.
