Avocados are awesome!
Too much fat bashing in this thread though.

It's true that avocados are high in fat -- one reason they've earned the nickname "butter pear." A medium-sized avocado contains 30 grams of fat, as much as a quarter-pound burger. That's why diet experts have long urged Americans to go easy on avocados in favor of less fatty fruits and vegetables. But now nutritionists are taking another look. They're finding that most of the fat in an avocado is monounsaturated -- the "good" kind that actually lowers cholesterol levels. Thanks to this new understanding, the U.S. government recently revised its official nutrition guidelines to urge Americans to eat more avocados.

They taste yum as a dip or a spread however crushing an avocado is to 'bruise' it and while it is still delicious it truly does change the taste of it ... unless I am specifically making a dip, I slice them for sandwiches ... at work i eat them straight from the skin with a spoon!
