    Default Anyone else eat avacado's like they are candy?

    I love them in salads, and puddings! Oh my gosh! they are just like an celestial food! NOM NOM!

    Nothing compares to their creaminess! It's probably bad to eat too much fat, but for now I am bulking up!

    If you put them in a bag and seal it up, they'll ripen even faster. I think you can also toss in a banana and that speeds the bag ripening method too.

    Yes it does. I often keep my bananas and avos together. I like bananas less and less though. I find them useful if I am hungry and just to darned bored or tired to make a meal but I don't enjoy them the way I enjoy juice or a huge hunk (if not a whole) watermelon.

    Oh we love avocados at our house. I buy 20-30 of them a week. Yummy!!!

    I put the ones I'm not ready for in the refrigerator and then ripen up the ones we want to use in a brown bag like Deb said. Once they are ripe, we put them in the refrigerator so they slow down their ripening until we use them.

    I don't eat them very often, but I love chocolate shakes with frozen bananas as the base! I never get sick of chocolate shakes!

    I do love avocados but my real Candy-Fruit is the tomato.
