There are plenty of foods I’ve never eaten that I don’t like. That’s just me.I remember you don't like them, but I'd figured you at least tasted one to come to that conclusion. How do you know that you don't like them if you've not eaten one?
If the recipe contest was for octopus, would you cook it?I told her the new ingredient and she said, “Well, that’s good for me, at least.”
I am going to guess the latter. I am sure they saw birds or some other animals eating it first and assumed it was safe before doing so.There are plenty of foods I’ve never eaten that I don’t like. That’s just me.
I don’t like the way the flesh looks, for the most part, and that’s enough for me right there to give it a miss. There’s also the texture, as Morning Glory mentions, not that I go around feeling avocado innards as a habit.
It’s just one of those things that, when I think back to the first person who ever picked one up and said, “Hmmmm, I wonder what this tastes like,” I assume they were probably trying it on a dare or were really hungry.
You sound just like my nephew, who will look at a dish and say:I don’t like the way the flesh looks, for the most part, and that’s enough for me right there to give it a miss. There’s also the texture,
No, any seafood like that, I wouldn’t mess with.If the recipe contest was for octopus, would you cook it?
See, when it comes to something new, I have to have a reason to think I might like it before I’ll risk eating something I won’t like. I’m not willing to chance eating something I potentially won’t like, because it’ll ruin me for the rest of the day. I’d have a hard time getting over or past it.You sound just like my nephew, who will look at a dish and say:
"I don't think I'm going to like this"
The only way to know is to taste.
Even I taste foods with huge lumps of meat in them
I like the Chili’s guacamole with the grilled corn in it. Then I mix it with the salsa and eat with chips.No, your impression was correct. Many people, especially of younger generations, love avocados and I know my daughters all love avocado spread on toast. They like guacamole with tortilla chips but I suppose they would eat it on toast, too.
That is quite all right, but it did catch me on surprise, possibly I was under the wrong impression that avocado toast and avocado in salads is a very popular combination in the Us.
I have some trouble finding a good avocado. I tend to pick underripe or off avocados...
School restarts on Sep 9th and with all going on, I have no idea if I can have a go for the challenge...although I'd love to.
My daughter loves guacamole on toast, and does it really well herself.

No, I cut mine in half and use the knife to remove the pit and scoop out the flesh with a spoon.Does anyone use one of these things?

First, you cut open the avocado and separate the halves, then you push those three slightly dull blades into the pit and give it a twist to remove that.
Then, you can drag the slicing end through the flesh, and it pops right out, in nice little slices.
I bought that for MrsT, after she decided to start eating avocados (I think they’re low WW points?), and there was no way I was going to cut them up, and she loves it, says it works very well.
