I paid almost $3 for the two rotten ones. "and I like pickled jalapenos fine. mainly, I like to eat the jalapenos real quick and then stuff carrots and onions in the juice. let them pickle and spice up a bit - like El Chicos." Wow, that's a good idea. I'll try that when we empty our current jar.

Wow, that's a good idea. I'll try that when we empty our current jar. I like real carrots and I cut them with a serrated knife for the little ridges. but fake baby carrots work fine too. and chili con queso my favorite recipe (when I take the time) velveeta cream cheese rotel jimmie dean you can control the spiciness with the various hot/mild flavor of the ingredients.

Cut them open and they were not only rotten, but MOULDY around the pit. They felt right from the outside, but something horribly wrong happened on the inside. I've never seen an avocado grow ... is it a tree or bush? Tree, you can grow one with your pits, put the pointy side up and place th pit in a small cup of water, using toothpiks to keep half the pit wet(flat rounder side) and half dry (pointy side), of course it would take a long time to produce avacodos, but you get a nice plant to look at while wating.

I've never wanted to try guac since I thought it looked weird and I was content with salsa. And avocados irk me just for the fact if you add avocado to something it instantly makes it 'California-style'. Ugh.

I love me some sour cream but not mixed with an avocado. Thats nasty. I make fabulous guacamole....just avocados, salsa, onions, garlic salt, and shredded lettuce for texture and some lemon or lime to keep it from turning brown.

It's like the DAMN TOMATER debate. If I put salt on it, it's a damn vegetable. If I put sugar on it, it's a FRUIT. Avocados are used like a vegetable...savory goodness, not sweet tastiness. But my point was that Avocados are beyond expensive if you don't have a tree in your backyard. The US Avocado industry spends a lot of money on lobbyists.

The best recipe I've come across (and many people agree with me) is just Avocados, Tomato (no skin, just the guts), lime juice, garlic salt, and onion bits.
