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.

My sister is ARFID, I could still theoretically eat the stuff I don’t like without my body reacting that way, it just isn’t worth doing. None of the stuff I don’t eat would cause any lasting harm, it’s just too strong of a flavour that it is essentially painful. All my senses are affected by being hypersensory, and my super taster and strong taster are individually and independently verified. Not just guesses or anything less certain.
My life is still surprisingly manageable, my sisters is not as much. She at least is not hypersensory. I couldn’t imagine that added on to her troubles.
