Opinion – The Avocado Dilemma

Have you ever met a rubbery avocado? You know, the ones that never quite soften,

no matter how long you leave them on the counter? I love avocados for their creamy

texture and rich flavor, but they can be so tricky! I’ll buy a bag, excited for guacamole

and avocado toast, only to find that I can’t scoop anything out of them. It truly feels

like a gamble! Some days I’m lucky and they’re perfectly ripe and delicious, but other

times I’m left disappointed, chewing on something unpleasant and chalky. Why can’t

avocados just coordinate better with their harvesting schedule? A little consideration

would go a long way!

Whoops, there are just 5 certain Short As, Have matter gamble can't can't
