My profound apologies.  I deleted too much and got dsi1's attribution.

My problem is I can't find nice, ripe avocados; when I want one,
I want to eat it today or tomorrow, not three or four days hence.
If I'm going to eat all that fat, it had better be worth it.

I don't just eat them, though.  Usually in a salad along with
shrimp, jalapeno, cucumber, tomatoes, cilantro, scallions, and
lettuce.  Dressed with lime juice and EVOO.

Sometimes on a sandwich.
