Totally random avocado ?

If you have an avocado and the inside is partially brown or mottled brown or brown spotted can you still eat it?

I don't, but I was just wondering.

Re: Totally random avocado ?

  • I still eat it! I will make it into guacamole if it's really brown, but I usually slice it up and put it on sandwiches. Yum! Now I want one.

  • I had one that had some brown streaks and still tossed it into a salad. Wasn't as good but I still ate it.

  • Here's a random ? for you... what is an avocado- veggie or fruit? Does it taste sweet or veggie like?

    Avocado is botanically a fruit, but people think of it as a vegetable like tomatoes. They taste veggie like. I love it on sandwiches and burgers the best. Also, very good mixed with salsa (aka quacamole) dipped with tortilla chips! Yum!!! I want some so bad right now.

    ETA: To me, avocados just eaten diced is kinda bland. I like the taste, but most people don't. I dice some pieces for M and he loves it. I tried pureeing it, but it was so gross and he gagged everytime I put a spoon near his lips.

    FWIW, DS LOVED avocados mixed with bananas - honestly, tastes like pie filling.  Delish!

    Although since your DS will eat them in pieces I guess that's pointless - still - so good!

    When you dice it, add some salt & pepper and a squirt of lime juice (or lemon juice or vinegar also works). Not bland anymore. Wink 

  • I will eat them if they're brown spotted, as long as they don't taste bad!
  • I usually cut around the darkish areas, but if it's edible I may try it to see if I like it still.

    I love chunks of it on salads :D  And now I want a burger w/ it on it.
