How do you know if an avacado is ripe (the hAAS ones).??? I bought somne today for the first time. Everyone seems to be talking about them lately.

When they "yield to light, but firm pressure when you squeeze them with your hand" is what I have always been told. It usually works well enough. Enjoy avocadoes are delicious.

It's kind of weird, with all the actual and possible typoes on a forum this size, why is avocado the word most often misspelled? No offense, just think it's strange...

Mmmmmm, at little salt an lime and it even comes with it's own little bowl. The Cali Avocados are pretty good but they are a tad sweeter than the Haas.

The bowl, oh my, yes! All you need is a teaspoon... Yummy! Ordinarily I don't even add anything; I like the subtle taste just the way it is...
