It needs some seasoning if eaten by itself. Or use it as a spread type thing to put on other foods. It's still really overrated though.

It's best used as a condiment. Did you eat underripe avocados like in your pic? Try using mashed ripe avocado in place of sour cream or mayonnaise, it not only tastes much better (for my taste, at least), but is healthier. As with any popular food, there are people who don't like it very much, or even hate it, but that doesn't mean that it's objectively bad.

I have the anti-cilantro gene, but I don't make threads about my dislike for it. I just ask to not have it in my meals in restaurants and don't buy it, and it's never a problem unless I'm eating with a retard who can't comprehend that someone doesn't like a certain food.

They generally need some seasoning. The standard is a sour, a spicy, and a salt. Usually I use lemon juice, grated fresh raw garlic, and salt.

Why are avocados popular? Mexican food is very popular right now, and they're pretty common there. Also they're easily spread on toast to create a breakfast item suitable for vegetarians and vegans, so they've popped up on the menus of the kinds of cute little places that do a brisk brunch business. Add to that they're considered a superfood by the kinds of retards who believe in superfoods. Anything that gets labeled a health food gets a moment of popularity as a result.

>> No.9757258

This. Not to mention that avocado works as a vegan substitute for animal products in many recipes so that gives it a lot of traction too.

I could go on, its not that butter is the same exact thing as an avacado. Its that an avacado is more of an ingredient (albeit heavy in fat like butter) than a food
