    I figured that how I would try them first as well. I'm not that experimental with expensive foods :p and yeah they are about an euro a piece here it seems (makes it definitely one of the more expensive fruits/vegs).

    When I looked it up a bit I found all that stuff as well, but since it is described as a sauce/dip I figured you don't eat it on itself out of a bowl with a spoon or something :p So with/on what do you guys prefer your guacamole?

    I usually mush up avocado with some olive oil, lemon juice, salt and pepper but I've recently realized how easy it is to simply peel them and eat them like an apple. Now I can eat my avocados on the go and I'm pretty stoked about it. I just finished my second avocado of the day

    I hope I find them tasty cause they seem healthy and a good source of fat. I'm also more inclined to try them raw/in an on the go way then that I'm eager to make guacamole (especially if I have no use for avocado sauce to go with anything :p :D)

    Peel them like an apple? I've never heard of that, but it sounds unnecessarily difficult. I just slice them in half, take the pit out of the middle, and scoop the fruit out from each half. Then again you said you eat them on the go.

    I sometimes add a bit of Himalayan pink salt.

    I thought 'sauce' was kind of misleading, it's generally made pretty thick and even sometimes a little chunky, I like to scoop it up with my favorite corn tortilla chips, eaten as a side dish or appetizer.

    Hmm yeah, I never use dip for my chips (I rarely eat chips anymore anyway cause I can't put down an opened bag). I probably just try them raw first!

    Making your own Guacamole is practically an artform. To get the proper balance of fresh cilantro, garlic, onion, tomato, Cheyenne pepper, and lemon juice to your taste can take a lot of experimentation but it's totally worth it.

    There are a lot of recipes out their, many simply rely on using a commercially prepared salsa of some kind. It'll work in a pinch, but nothing beats an all fresh ingredient Guac'

    I discovered it by accident one day when I cut one in half and noticed the skin was peeling back so I just grabbed it and peeled back and it came right off. Its a bit tricky when you don't have a knife but if the avocado is cut in half first the skin will usually slide right off in one piece.

    Who doesn't like peeling a piece of fruit while trying to keep the skin in one piece!? Ok, not every time... but still. :p

    I made pad thai tonight. It was really good but I should have cut the chicken a little smaller as the chunks were a little large.

    I've had a coffee so far. Intend on eating lunch shortly as I've done no work for 3 hrs... Suddenly hungry. I think it's a chicken and cheese wrap the missus made.

    Gelato looks good. I never heard of it before.....Nice photo on a green, no less, dish....

    I had scrambled eggs with catsup tonight....not very Irish, but was not in the mood for much to eat...and still nursing a stomach that was not well and is still queasy a bit when I eat anything.
