Even though avocados have gone up in price, I was able to score some last weekend fairly cheaply but the reason is, is they are a bit over ripe and need to be used in a hurry. I like avocado toast and had that for lunch yesterday and today. I also like them in sandwiches, in cooking especially with Mexican foods, and in salads. I also enjoy guacamole and will eat that sometimes as well. Avocados are very healthy, and I do enjoy them. What do you like to do with yours? Do you eat them at all? Not everyone is a fan.

I ate two avocados last night. I just threw them in my salad. It makes the salad taste so much better.

@JohnRoberts That's true, I bet they are still pretty cheap in Calif though..shipped here to the East coast they are usually pretty high. It's a shame though because they are good for you.

I used to hate avos, but tastes change as we get older and now I love them. I use them in salads or with eggs. But sometimes they are too expensive, so I have to wait till they are available more cheaply. To keep them from going brown, sprinkle the cut avo with lemon or lime juice and wrap in cling wrap.

Yes, sometimes stores like Aldi or Super Target have them for decent prices.

I love avocados! Mainly we will just slice them up and stick them in salads, or even as a topping on burgers. But I have them on hand to include in smoothies for the kids. Sometimes we make guacamole too if I have all the other ingredients. But if there's one that needs to be used up, I will simply just open it up and eat it!

They don't taste that great plain..but are good with a bit of doctoring up. I prefer them to mushrooms.

I love avocado. I either put it in a salad or just eat it as is with whatever dish I am eating. Sometimes I might mash it and do an omelette with it. Or I might smother it on top of bread instead of butter. So good. I never get them when they are too dark on the outside because that means they are over ripened and may not be good inside. And I don't like getting them very hard either because then I can't eat them right away. And sometimes they don't even ripen. My mom gave me a few avocados. It was almost a week ago, if not more. One I managed to eat, thought it was barely soft. The other one is still hard as a rock. :( Doesn't look like it will ripen anytime soon.

I love them. I eat it plain but sometimes I cut it into cubes and add onions, tomatoes and little salt and eat it as salads. It taste yummy with lunch.

I really love avocado. It's one of my favorite fruits. I mixed it with milk and sugar, and freeze it, the next day I eat it. It's so delicious.
