That what I like about this thread, I have the Australian national colours green and gold now in my avatar, but i did have the rainbow colours.

Just to keep it about avocados the green is a bit avo colour.

No bags of Avo's on sale yesterday, but got some nice one's that came from NZ at $3.00 each.

Have not tried them yet as they are still pretty firm.

I’d return. Let them look at the mush. I don’t return often but when it’s never ending and pricy I do. Never had a problem. My MX have been awesome. Knocking on wood. Seasons and regions change.

I'm red/green colour blind and that looks like a muddy brown to me.
I preferred the rainbow colours.

In the last three years I think I e gone two, maybe three days without but they were not consecutive days haha. I just miss them and they make me feel so good. For me it’s only about flavor. It’s about energy and bg. They keep both steady all day. Though of course I do love that creamy goodness!

It must have been because he was a new member, and he was moderated down.

When the results are announced for the same sex marriage postal survey, I will put it back for a few days.
 
So avo is back on the bf menu. I was taking ,ore insulin for it so I switched to turkey mustard mayo lettuce wrap. Keeping avo at other meals.
If I just eat protein is spike as nad a carbs and as fast. If I just eat avo and take insulin I drop. So all my meals with the exception of my recent bf change all contain protein and avo

According to calorie king 2oz ( about 1/3 ) contains 5 g carbs. We don’t subtract fiber here and I’m happy about that as it doesn’t work for me. I need to count all carbs. So I’m thinking just smashing less in my wraps. The problem is I’m dropping too low without the magical avo. I’m thinking the avo slows the protein and the protein slows the avo. Shouldn’t come as a surprise as a meal with out one or the other never works for me. Either spike or hypo.


I’m happy to have it back at bf!!!!!

It's funny I go through phases. I can eat one every day and then I'm done for a week or so.

I was eating one almost every day over the summer, but haven't had one for a few days now. I think the weather affects my avocado consumption.

Same for me, except it's been more than a few days since I last had the lovely avo - hence not contributing here for a while. They were good for ages and could safely be bought and kept to ripen well at home, then gradually (in my location), I couldn't find any that stayed good for more than a day or two at most before going 'off'. I can't afford to keep throwing away stuff that's a bit on the expensive side in the first place.
Now I'm thinking that I'll trying sticking to proper "seasonal" foods like we used to have when I was a kid.

ps. but I do miss my daily treat, so might just venture into avo-land again if I find any temptingly just right :)
