I love Avocado. When I go to the store I’ll pick out a green one that’s firm, and I’ll eat it once it starts to get slightly soft. The problem is more than 90% of the time they’re no good. They have a gross taste, almost like it’s spoiled. I can’t blame the store, I’ve tried Aldi, Walmart, Kroger, Trader Joe’s and they all have the weird gross taste. Maybe it’s the supplier, the type of avocado (hass i believe) or maybe it’s just me. By the way the only reason I try and try again is because our avocados are cheap. .65-85 cents and I get one a week. (Maybe my region is getting garbage avocados?)

Anytime I go to a restaurant and order anything with avocado, it’s always perfection. I would rather eat a good avocado than any desert and this is coming from someone who loves desert and doesn’t eat as many fruits or vegetables as I should.

So what should I be doing to get a good avocado from the grocery store?

I’ve tried googling and following those directions but nothings working. Maybe Lemmy knows something Google doesn’t?

Also I’ve tried getting them when they’re soft, firm, green, darker, I’ve put them in the fridge, I’ve tried combinations of things and nothing that I’ve notice has worked.
